They are the one that controls finances in the household and what their kids own.

That doesn't mean that we shouldn't regulate predatory practices. Many video games are built on social media and gambling models designed with intentionally addictive features. In not talking about fun features, I'm talking about addictive features. There are panels at game designer conferences you can listen to about this stuff.

It doesn't. But, doesn't excuse parental responsibility either, since they are the one with the final deciding factor. Especially over monetary access.
