To school aged persons, do your parents restrict your access to video and online games?

my parents have tried but it has never worked. i say i am very liberal so i get away with stuff. but not to the extent where they don't care at all. but anyway. my parents are 48 & 50

Main Game Screen MAPLE STORY

LV. --: This is what your level is... duh.

HP [----/----]: This is how many hit points you have and how many you have

left.

MP [----/----]: This is how much mana you have and how much you have left.

EXP. ---- [--.--%]: This is how many experience points you have gained so far

and what percent you are till the next level.

The box above this is the message area and you can see what people are

saying and even get ingame tips from Maple Story. You can also type in your own

text and talk to people.

Red Dot: Tells you when one of your friends is online.

Blue Dot: Tells you when someone requests to by your friend, or trade with you.

3 Colored Squares: Tells you when you have a new note.

Key Setting: Brings up the Key Settings screen when you can change what the

keys on you keyboard do.

or useable items to close keys for quick useage.

You can't use Mesos here and you have to spend your own money on

getting Privet Messages anymore.

My parents allowed me to play video games for about 2-3 hours per day providing all my chores and homework were done. My parents are 50 and 47.

they dont restrict what i play, but how long i play (it takes me so long to beat a game, becouse i only get 3 hours a week :( )

They don't. But they only let me play for an hour. :)
