Majority of persons these days have easy access to computers and children of nowadays prefer playing video games.

Although

, technology has advanced in so many ways, making life easy for everyone. There are so many advantages why children enjoy playing video games,

however

, there are still drawbacks to

this

. The world is revolving around technology now hereby substituting a stressful life with a stress-free one. One of the main advantages to

this

is convenience, in that, parents do not need to take their children for outdoor games especially after a stressful week at work.

Secondly

, another major merit to

this

is that it is a way of distraction to kids. Children easily get distracted by activities, graphics, and, screenplay,

this

has helped many families to meet up with house chores, and other daily schedules.

For instance

, whenever my mother is preparing food during weekends, she always gives my brother play station four to keep him busy.

This

would not have been so if there were no indoor games. Irrespective of the advantages, the drawbacks are

also

not hidden. One main disadvantage to

this

is that there is an emotional attachment to family members

such

that, the kid hardly socializes with other people in the public. Another demerit is that it can make one lose focus in school work.

For example

, I have a friend that misses his assignment due to the number of video games she has at home lined up for her every day after school.

This

cannot be overlooked. In summary, in as much as, technology is advancing and making growth easy for us the setbacks from it cannot be swept under the carpet.
