Addiction on Video Gaming

With regards to this article, i think that youths playing Video Games should control themselves on the amount of hours infront of the screen. Many a times people think that one were to rush home and play video games, is a sign of addiction. However, it is not, it is a decrease in school performance or greater friction among friends and family. Addiction occurs when a person needs a particular influence to achieve a sense of well being and therefore, is a mental and physical dependency compared to that stimulus. It is very easy to spot if one is hooked onto playing video games. Observe if he/she has been spending alot on purchasing video games or PC games lately. Has he/she been infront of the screen most of the time? Does he/she rather play videos games than having meals? If one were to hooked onto to video games, he will always keep thinking, strategizing how to win the next game. I have a few friends who were an addiction to video games, they had always been spending alot purchasing new games. They will definitely visit the LAN shop if they happen to pass by the shop, and will spend the rest of the day in the LAN shop playing. I think that it isn't wrong playing video games, just that one have to control himself, preventing geting addiction to it.
