THIS IS MENTAL!

Doctors can clearly pinpoint why certain teens get into immense amounts of trouble and the explanation isn't always their lifestyle or the television, but another problem that relates to both in a way.



Computer games can cause mental issues in teens as they grow up and the problem is growing at an alarming rate, not only do we see teens committing crimes that involve hurting others but also putting themselves through such regrettable act. Also, we do see a growing trend of population of juvee patients and that's not a good sign at all. The main question again is why such games cause abusiveness and problems amongst other teens that play them?


Well the answer is pretty logical; teens get so into the flow of the game that they lose interest in their surroundings whilst concentrating on the violent tactics and strategies to be executed in the games they are playing. If doctors can prove that video games are a vast problem, then ESRB rating would have to go up and more "proofing" would have to be done in retail stores


While the majority of mental issues that occur in young teens are abusiveness, there is also a growing issue that has to do with struggling in school and not being social with other kids your age. While there are many other things that can cause these problems including television and bumming around inside for no apparent reason, however we see video games topping the list. Not only do teens do not go out and enjoy life, but they also eat a lot more which can make them obese, consequently leading to larger problems down the road when they grow older. So why are video games so so addicting?

Well the fact is that these particular teens just have no self esteem and self confidence. All they do is just playing games and that’s the way of their life because they feel that if they are good at video games, then they are good at something. This is something positive in its own way, but it just isn't healthy to sit around for hours on the couch staring at the screen. I recommend more mamak sessions, get out from the house, and have supper, talk about games and more games and nothing else but games, no one cares really. At least you are away from the god damn screen for once.

Parents often complain all the time about their children losing interest in other things, especially their friends and they blame it all on video games, so at least this is a start to figuring out the overall problem at least. Game developers can't stop the production of violent video games because there are adults that have high interests in such games. The only thing retail stores really need to do is proof everyone that looks underage and maybe increase the ESRB rating of M related games to 18 + perhaps.
