PETALING JAYA: The incident linking the online game Roblox to a nine-year-old boy who allegedly attacked his younger brother in Batu Pahat highlights how unregulated exposure to violent or highly stimulating games can distort emotional responses in children, say experts.
Crime prevention specialist Dr Shamir Rajadurai said that when children lack emotional regulation and empathy, frustration in a virtual world can translate into violence in the real one.
