Video games are part of a child's world, often from an early age. Children have access to these games on different platforms: computers and game consoles, but also tablets and cell phones. It is therefore important to supervise their use, as some video games can be harmful. These games can, however, also contribute to learning.
The North American video game industry has a rating code, administered by the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB). Game companies are not required to comply by law, but they do so voluntarily. The video game's ESRB rating is a good indication of its content.
