The bad language happens to everyone, even i have a tendancy to swear more after playing or watching a game or movie that has lots of bad language in it. It can be bad if the child is talking over XBOX live. Even (Read:especially) if they are 12 or 13, XBLA chat is a horrible place, people dont like younger kids or any type of kid and will swear and troll and pick on any target they deem "squeaker".
He did actually complain about that, forgot to mention that in the OP.
Maybe let him play singleplayer and motivate him to refrain from multiplayer. But most importantly, understand the game. The rating system isnt perfect. Halo Reach was MA, but then so was assassins creed and max payne, and they varied greatly. I would let anyone play Halo reach, but i might if i was a conservative parent wait till they're 13 or so for Max Payne.
I have no authority over him. And it seems..out of place for me to act like the parent. I don't think our parents would even like that.
Oh, and never ever restrict a child from anything until you know what their personal maturity and sophistication is like. I know some 10 year olds who understand the philosophies of Assassins creed and can follow and understand the storyline of Dear Esther, yet there is no age i have seen where there hasnt been completely stupid immaturity present. They can have the mind of a 2 year old.
He's does NOT have the personal maturity or sophistication that is ideal to play the games he plays. For example, he's playing BO 2, he dies - cries, throws a fit and screams, 'oh my gawd!.' Sometimes instead of walking away, he throws his controller on the group in rage. It's ridiculous. I might just take away the games he rages at. (which are all shooters and not appropriate for him to begin with)
