Video Games
How long should kids be allowed to play video games for serious addiction problem?
We've bought over $3650 Aust.worth of games over the past five years and my little nephew won't give video games a break. He practically plays them from the moment he gets home until he sleeps then all weekend. We try to get him away from them as much as we can but feel as though it's our fault because we used to play video games all of the time. He does do afternoon sports and watches a few cartoons before he goes to bed. But we're afraid he has too much of a video game addiction. He's only ten. Should we stop buying him games? What to do we've bought a wii and playstation 3 and also own and xbox and whole bunch of gamecube games. Is there anything we can do? Is it safe for kids to grow up this way?
My little brother is exactly like that and he started not doing homework, skipping school, faking sick, etc. to stay home and play games. He also turned into a spoiled little brat. I would suggest no games or tv until homework is done and then restricted play time for only 1-2 hours per day.
