Maxwell Gamer plays PUBG, 6 years old and he makes it to the top 10.

So Maxwell has been watching me (Daddy aka TheeMonarch) playing Playersunknown Battlegrounds for a few weeks now and has been asking to try it. Due to the realistic violence, we decided that he's not quite ready to play. However we found that we can motivate him in school with gaming so we came up with the idea to reward him with 1 round of PUBG for every story he read. Works like a charm.

For a kid playing PUBG for the first time, he exceeded my expectations. His Minecraft and Overwatch skills (ASDW) translate really well into this game so he picked it up quickly. I had to give him a few tips on the mechanics of PUBG like what scopes to use, when to bandage up and what certain things did, but all in all he figured it out.

I know not every parent would decided to allow their 6 year old to play violent video games, some restricting them from gaming all together, however my wife and I have decided to embrace it. He loves playing, he's a built in gaming friend for me, and it's and it's a motivator. We also like exposing him to the PC as much as possible. Mouse and keyboards are critical skills that he's starting to master at a young age which will only help him later in life. I had my first computer when I was about his age (Apple IIgs, followed by a 486) which were my first experiences gaming. It helped get me curious about computers and technology which are now staples of my life.
