Internet scares her. Marcia's mom says, “If Marcia has a cell phone, how do we know whom
she is talking to? Video games are bad for you. The Internet is dangerous and uncontrolled.
It’s like having a gun in the house. We should just ban her from using the computer, and I'm
not buying her a cell phone until she is eighteen. This is the only way we can be sure that
Marcia is safe."
Marcia’s dad disagrees with Marcia's mom. Although he agrees that there are some
dangers to it, he likes the Internet, and finds it to be very useful. “The trouble is,” he says,
“We just can’t stop Marcia from using the Internet, as this would put her at a disadvantage.
What is more, I like video games. I think that, when played in moderation, they are fun.
Obviously, it is not good to play them without restraint or self-control. Finally, I think
Marcia needs a cell phone. We can’t take these things away.”

dad?
