As a professional working with children, I have witnessed firsthand the negative impact of the video game "Poppy Playtime". Several children in my care have started to exhibit violent behavior after playing this game. When asked not to imitate actions from the game or draw related pictures, these children react violently towards those trying to guide them.

"Poppy Playtime", while marketed as suitable for all ages, contains elements that are clearly inappropriate for younger audiences. The character designs and gameplay can influence impressionable minds, leading them towards aggressive behavior. This is not an isolated incident; numerous reports from parents and educators echo similar concerns about this video game's effect on young players.

According to a study by Iowa State University, exposure to violent video games increases aggression in youth (Anderson et al., 2010). It is crucial that we take these findings seriously and ensure age-appropriate content for our children.

We urge the creators of "Poppy Playtime" and relevant regulatory bodies to reconsider its age rating. By restricting access for younger players, we can protect our children from potential harm caused by unsuitable content.
