Attention all parents of Pokémon GO players: as you already know, this latest fad has taken over your children’s lives. Since the invention of the Internet, you, the parents, have been dutifully saving us, the children, from the unknown horrors of the web by telling us to instead of go outside and enjoy the world instead of playing games online. Now, not even the great outdoors are safe. This new terror combines augmented reality and uses real life landmarks and GPS location to simulate the real world. It creates a drug-like addiction that children find irresistible. We the players walk from landmark to landmark collecting virtual items and catching Pokémon in the process.
This constant physical activity is bound to leave us vulnerable to the powerful UV rays emitted by the sun. Years of staying indoors have made our skin sensitive to the harmful rays of the sun. In response to this game, you must turn up the intensity of your warnings in hopes of frightening your defenseless children away from the dangers of the outside world. from the unfortunate consequences of playing the game, such as excessive exercise, making too many new friends and fulfilling our dreams of becoming a Pokémon master.
