games that are useless and adding nothing useful for their mental and physical development. According to the recent survey, about 80% of school going children are addicted to playing games on

To sum up, Parents should try to keep an eye on daily routine and activities of their children and should not merely rely on technology. Computers should be used by children adequately to avoid playing on it excessively. In order to have a healthy mind and body children need to be constantly encouraged to perform sports activities which are beneficial for their mental and physical growth.
