VIdeo Games

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/12/science/studying-the-effects-of-playing-violent-video-games.html?_r=0


There has been much research about video games for a long time now.  They have come to the conclusion that it does affect the brain, but what about the affect on society?  This article address the issue of whether or not children who play video games, especially those that are violent, will commit a violent act at some point in their life.  By letting our youth be so involved in these games can cause problems in our community.  Instead of letting these games be babysitters, have kids go outside and enjoy the world around them, not a violent filled combat imaginary world.

There are many benefits to video game play and studies have shown that violent video games do not affect the typical child that plays them. They are aware of the differences of real life and the imaginary world of video games.
