President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet with video game makers at the White House on Thursday to discuss how exposure to violent games is linked to aggression and desensitization in children.

Trump arranged the meeting as part of a wide-ranging effort triggered by the mass shooting at the Parkland, Florida, high school last month. The president believes that video games can instill violent thoughts in young people’s minds and wants to work with industry leaders to address the problem.
