This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition delete fortnite game completely from the uk
some suggestions : create certain restrictions, make fortnite completely unavailable in the uk, make the prices higher so children are less likely to buy it, make the age restriction 16+ etc.
More details
children nowadays are so consumed with fortnite as its so addictive that they are missing out on social interactions, social development and their childhood. many children are less focused on their school work and their future and are instead focused on a violent game that makes them develop a more angry and out of control behaviour as they break things and scream out of anger of losing in the game. something needs to be done to encourage these children that there is more to life than this.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Children's use of video games is a matter for them and their parents, not the UK Government or Parliament.
You could start a petition calling for a review of the impact of video games on children's development, if that is something you'd like to happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
