Abstract

This chapter looks at the interplay between video and computer games and values discourse within families. The authors focus on the theoretical models for values discourse within families; the role that video games can play in values discourse within the family; the role that both research and design have in the game creation process; and the future opportunities for engaging values and ethics discourse within the family context through gaming.
