There are some concerning adverse impacts of the youngster playing video
games
, and the most devastating one is the addiction created. Millions of dollars are spent to make such
games
to attract a large audience and keep them glued to the PC monitors or consoles. So they are addictive by design and this
obsession hampers youngster's outdoor activities, studies and even time to socialize and learn important life skills. Many research works suggest that children
who spend many hours playing such
computer games
end up performing poorly in schools and avoid social events and outdoor events. This
results in physical and psychological issues including poor eyesight and despair. Moreover
, violent games
cloud the youngsters' judgement and make their rational thinking unstable. Often, youngsters who play such
games
develop brash behaviours.
To minimize the severity of these negative impacts, parents
must monitor their youth’s activities, especially on computers. They should not be allowed to play computer games
for more than a few hours each week and parents
can actively take part in those games
with their children
so that it becomes family time. Children
's outdoor activities should be taken seriously and parents
should take them out whenever possible. Finally
, parents
can use parental control on the digital contents and games
their children
watch or play. This
would deter children
from downloading and playing games
that are not suitable for their age.
To conclude, computer games
, when played excessively by children
, have many detrimental effects. Proper parenting and monitoring seem like the best solution to solve these problems.Submitted by ash.fuji2018 on
