In today's era young generation prefer to spend time playing

games

on computers and mobile phones and pay very little attention to traditional leisure

activities

. In the following paragraphs, I will explain the repercussions of playing electronic

games

and how

this

problem can be solved by giving certain solutions.

Firstly

, overuse of electronic devices has an adverse effect on children's health as sitting in the wrong posture and playing

games

the whole day can possibly cause back problems.

Moreover

,

this

is the root cause of children's obesity and weak eyesight.

For instance

, a child starts playing

games

and while playing he feels hungry and starts eating junk and

then

again resume his game with no physical activity.

Secondly

, if

this

situation will remain the same

then

there will be no bond between parents and children. Because youngsters like to play

games

and get involved in that play so much that it weakens the bond with the parents. So, to deal with the situation, elders should devote some time to their offspring by keeping aside their work. They should try to teach their offspring that what are the benefits of doing physical

activities

. Apart from

this

, there is need of the hour that in school some competitions should be organised related to traditional leisure

activities

so that a child develops his interest in that game.

For example

, If in a school competition is organised

then

definitely students will take part in that activity and to perform well they will practice it after school hours

also

.

Likewise

, their interest will be developed and if parents motivate them

then

their confidence will boost up. After some days youngsters will find change in themself and will start avoiding electronic play. To conclude, I would like to say that even performing

activities

on computers can develop the mental ability of players as in the case of crossword, puzzles but overuse of anything leads to bad consequences.

Therefore

elders should give attention to their youngsters that what they are doing in daily life and should light the path with the right guidance.
