I, myself, am of the younger generation and have played pokemon games for over half my life. I did download pokemon go to see what it was all about, but didn't much enjoy it. I hate to be rude or negative, but most of the issues with the game are all easily avoidable if people were responsible and had any sort of intelligence or common sense. Walking off of a cliff? That is not the games fault. If you are dense enough to be that unaware of your surroundings, you were going to die anyway. You're upset because your daughter almost got kidnapped while walking around unattended at the age of 10 in random neighborhoods? Maybe watch your children, and don't let them roam around by themselves. This isn't 1972. This is 2016. You should ALWAYS have an eye on your children. Children get kidnapped in broad daylight, in public, in stores, while you are standing right there. There was a woman that said she was going to try to sue pokemon go, because her and her son were "led by the game" to a known homosexual-hookup park in their city, and her child was exposed to sights that he didn't need to see. Umm mmm, you said yourself that it was a known hookup park. Why did you walk with your child into a known hookup park and not expect it to still be the same hookup park that it has always been?!
Sorry. Rant over. Moral of the story, utilize common sense and you'll be fine. I hate to say it, but maybe pokemon go will be good for population control/natural selection.
