I encourage every parent with a child or teen playing video games to listen to today’s episode. The information offered is refreshing, educational, and enlightening. I had the pleasure of talking with Aubrey Quinn, Vice President of Communications and Public Affairs at The Entertainment Software Association (the ESA), which serves as the voice and advocate for the video game industry. Their mission is to expand and protect the dynamic worldwide marketplace for video games. She offers insight, information and strategies to help parents understand the benefits of gaming and ways to ensure our children stay safe while enjoying video games.  We also talk about misperceptions of the industry and how gaming and social media are not two peas in a pod. Below are several helpful links mentioned in the episode.
