Perhaps the appropriate response from companies such as ID Software would be to request that the parent produce proof that their children even owned legal copies of software such as the much-vaunted Doom.
Let's face it, chances are high ID never got a penny out of the parties involved, and they are being sued as the result of illegal use on the part of the kids! Perhaps the problem is not violent video games corrupting the youth, but rather already-corrupt youth STEALING violent video games is more a symptom?
