Father Let Son Die While He Played Online Games

[sgk]

Tragic news out of South Korea.

He would only check in on his two year-old every two or three days, feeding the child and then leaving to head off to another PC bang (net cafe)

On March 7, Chung allegedly found his son dead. He finally disposed of the body in a trash bag and continued going to net cafes and playing PC games.

Now who says Games don't kill people?

They really need to place tighter controls on gaming in South Korea - playing for days on end leading to the death of family is unjustifiable IMO. Poor kid probably wouldn't have gotten a good childhood even if he did survive.

Checked in on his child once every two or three days?!?! This is pure stupidity and not gaming addiction that led to this tragedy. If it wasn't video games then it would have been something else. He continued gaming after he had disposed of his son. Wow. I'd say that this is sociopath behavior but even most sociopaths have shown protective qualities towards their own kin.

What a fucking retard .

Wow. Terrible. 2-3 days? How can a baby even surive that long.

Laws only limit freedom. Bad idea. Really bad.

Really? What do you want them to do? Make it illegal to play games after a certain duration? This is child neglect/abuse and he probably just used it as an excuse. Placing restrictions on games and gaming wont help.

Being a neglectful parent has nothing to do with gaming, I'm sick of parents trying to cover up their own incompetence by blaming computer games and ruining the fun I have in my free time.

My neighbor let his daughter drown in a running bathtub while he was making top ramen...thought leaving the drain open would keep 1 year old safe...

My eyes really got wet when I imagined the kid's condition when the two-year-old was alone at home for 2-3 DAYS. How would he manage going to sleep, eat or even poop?

Pretty depressing.

It is absolutely sickening to hear tragedies like these. Thinking of how the child was feeling when he dies, and how the mother felt when she found out, made me wish he will get the death penalty (yes, south Korea still has the death penalty).

You are the sick one in here when you say that someone should be killed.

He must of had serious problems but i guess situations like this one are pretty rare. So this situation is just like a psycho Exception.

Hanging would be too quick. I'd prefer the old rat in a tin tied to chest and heated up with a blow torch.

[jodybay]

that asshole need to go to jail and feed him 2x a week only
good thing his son died because im sure the poor kid will only have a miserable life with him
the father also need a psychological help that is not an addiction anymore

[fattypig]

This is too sick to show my wife...... awww..

Until 2006, I was addicted to the Age of Empires. I used to play it 12-14 hours a day, despite severe nausea and headache. So... I know how it is to be, mortally addicted to computer games.
