marketing industries and harm themselves. Certain games have been banned in different countries after children died by playing those.

For example

, recently a

game

launched by a Russian company called ''Blue Whale'' has caused death of teenagers in many different parts of the world. Children were hypnotised while playing, and were forced into believing the commands of the animation

character.

Initially

the commands involved completing simple tasks, but slowly over the days, the tasks became more and more dangerous and final task pressured the

child

into committing suicide.

This

game

caused an uproar not only in Russia, but

also

in Mexico, China, India, America and Europe.

, there are other games which have caused accidents and other complications. We all must

have heard

of the famous Japanese

game

,

Pokemon

Go. Soon after

its

release,

this

game

achieved huge popularity internationally. Even though it was super entertaining and safe to play, but it

also

caused a lot of chaos and accidents. Bringing the virtual and the real world together,

Pokemon

Go was the

of

its

kind. There were several instances of car accidents, people tripping and falling down, kids getting knocked over, children boarding trains, buses and ending up in unknown places just by chasing a virtual character called

Pokemon

.

For example

, a few months ago a young boy in the city of Peru, boarded a long distance bus and ended up in some different unknown town, because he was super engrossed in chasing

Pokemon

. After a lot of hassle and complaints, he was safely brought home by the police.

Such

grave are the effects of games on the naive minds of children. While it is

also

true that not all games are bad. Some games like Puzzle solving,

soduku

number puzzle in which numbers must be fit into a 9x9 grid such that each numeral appears exactly once in each row, column and each of nine 3x3 blocks

sudoku

, chess, helps in sharpening the intellect and encourages the thinking ability of

kids

Suggestion

the kids

. We do need to realize that these games are not that popular among children who mostly opt for shooting, racing, cooking and other meaningless games which stresses the eyes and minds.

Finally

, to conclude, I totally agree and acknowledge the harmful effects that computer games have on children. At the same

time

, I believe not all games have the same detrimental outcomes. There are games which are helpful and helps in building cognitive thinking and intellectual abilities. Children are gullible and easily believe what their brains are fed, so it is very important that parents supervise and monitor their

child

all the

time

. It is on adults to make the decision of selecting the right

game

and discouraging the

child

from spending excessive

time

on games.
