My parents won't allow me to play the Sims 2. Is this bogus or reasonable?

i mean another thing is, make the teen be aware of the Woohoo and know when to use it.

It's called, "Communication" with your child! Hellooooo! When I bought it for my daughter to play. Next thing I know, my granddaughter, who was 10 at the time, and into her "Build-a-Bear" game, got hooked on Sims2. Her mother has an open communication with both of her kids. There is no topic off limits if they want to know something.

It's not like they're watching a Prono movie. In fact, I think it helps in their development. She does limit her to how long she plays the game, which is quite reasonable, but restricting them from even playing the game is crazy.

Heck, my other granddaughter knew about the game before I did. Her friends play the game. You can only monitor your kids so much. Heck, my kids were telling me stuff I didn't even know, when they were going to school.
