The Obvious Danger Of Kids' Computer Games.

By Dmitry Vasenyov


As you know many kids play computer games now. This way they expose their mental and physical health to a big danger. I'm talking about this scaring violence featured by the vast majority of computer games. So there's no wonder that violence is becoming quite a common thing now. Kids are getting used to it. Of course this shouldn't be. Violent games keep on attracting kids. Just imagine that only 2% of kids like to play educational computer games.

In fact the supporters of video games usually point out that computer games are quite helpful because they are able to enhance hand-eye coordination. To some extent they are right. But anyway kids really don't benefit much from playing computer games. Nothing will soften their getting violent because of playing brutal computer games.

These days we simply can't imagine a typical childhood without computer games. This virtual amusement consumes tons of precious time. Kids get stuck to their gaming consoles. Naturally they forget about the necessity to do various everyday things. They don't need to eat. They don't need to sleep. They ignore doing their home assignments. They are only busy with operating virtual characters on the screen. Computer games bring up aggressive creatures who react aggressively almost on everything.

The vast majority of computer games have quite a primitive theme. So a virtual character is busy with fighting his anonymous enemies. This primitive plot often provokes violent behavior. Exactly violence get kids addicted to computer games. Kids even try to save money just to purchase the latest computer games.

I'd like to add that the kids' computer game developers are used to cashing in on this. They simply go on posting attractive advertisements on the net. They also advertise it on TV. You'd better search for alternative activities for you kid if you want to keep him from this bad habit. I'm sure that it's really possible to attract your kid by something more worthy than playing computer games.
