We are living in a digital age. A lot of today's adults were playing with home and portable game systems when they were kids (some still do) as well as surfing the web before they were out of high school. As you said, your child's parents consume a lot of digital media, so it's more than likely that she will to, but as long as you aren't using the video games as a babysitter and making sure that she does other things then it's alright. I would also like to add that it would be refreshing to see some educational game offerings on mainstream video gaming systems one day.
