Reminds me of second grade, when I showed my teacher a CYOA book I was reading and she contacted my parents to warn me about it being a bad influence. Apparently some Christian sects expanded the fearmongering about D&D to CYOA, which made it a tool of the devil.
Ah, the days of growing up in the American South!
- themodelplumber 8y agoIt works without religion, too. I'm a parent of elementary age kids in California and I've seen both Minecraft and Fortnite completely demonized by people with no religious concern. I've noticed that in many of these cases, the parent's conclusion is never "my kid needs help and IDK what to do," but rather it's always the object that's _external to the kid and parents_ that's at fault.
