    It all depends on how responsible/mature the child is. If they are behaving violent and are bullying people then this would not be a good thing to have, but for a responsible person then it would be okay to play. Don't listen to all the people saying that it is rubbish; it has it's problems, just like any other game but overall is a great game.

    Introduce them to a rated M game like Metal Gear Solid 4, which is a very good lesson on the military industrial complex, and the creator is very anti-war. Let them read up on it. I don't know how old you are, but there are lots of great games that aren't rated M. Skyward Sword, Wind Waker, Metroid, Brawl, Uncharted and the like.

    Relax, it isn't a very fun game anyway, and while I feel for you, since I went through the same thing, there are plenty of things you can do until then. Wait until you are 17 to bother her too much.

    It might help to find some studies that prove there is no link between games and violence.

    This is what you do:

    1) Make sure she is happy

    2) When she is happy, in a very calm and orderly way, tell her that you are not killing people, You are killing computerized bots.

    3) Tell her that when you are killing in this game, you are doing it for the self defense of your soldier dude.

    4) If she still doesn't agree, show her how much fun quick scoping can be. Show her a video.

    5) Show her a video of how u have to calculate the distance before u throw a grenade.

    6) Knifing people improves your reacting skills in real life.

    7) Just tell her you r playing this for FUN.

    I think you should listen to your parents; how old are you anyway? The game contains a lot of violence and gore and I personally wouldn't recommend it for children.

    beg her until she gets frustrated and buys it for you or make a compromise or deal with her like say you'll get all a's and shell buy it for you or something it depends on how your mom works. and dont feel sad my mom wont let me get it either
