Message: [QUOTE="Orijinal, post: 3120159, member: 2359"] I video game. I completely see some of the benefits of casual gaming. Without a doubt. HOWEVER, when video gaming gets out of moderation ...say more than 1.5 hours a day, it's not good. And it's super common for kids to spend 6 hours a day or more gaming ...even during a school week. That is NOT good for an up and coming young adult--socially, emotionally, or physically. The addictive nature of gaming is real. And kids are glad to waste away their lives on front of a screen. Some might even carry full time jobs early in life, but they are living for game time after punch out. This no doubt leads to feelings of worthlessness, social anxiety, lack of confidence (which is due to lack of productivity), and fear of the future. So what do they do? They game to get away from dealing with those feelings. Video gaming can easily become vicious and addictive, and any study that fails to report this is lacking in honesty and integrity [/QUOTE]
