Video Games
The other day I had a huge argument with my friend about video games. My friend Maria has a younger brother. He is 12 years old and plays video games all the time. I think that it’s horrible. So, I was telling to Maria why her parents don’t limit his time in front of the computer. She thinks that nothing is wrong with playing video games. She told me that if kid has fun with something why we should forbid that. However, think that playing video games for a long time is very harmful for kids. It can damage their nerves and ruin their brains. I’ve never played video games but every time when I see somebody playing, I see killing, blood, and violence. I think that kids who play these games, when they grow up will be able to kill people, because they did these the whole childhood and it’s not anything different for them, because that’s what they were doing the whole time. Maria was telling me that her brother is not going to kill anybody that it’s just a game. However, there are some kids who are easily influenced and these games have really bad influence on them. I think that more news, entertainment, and technological improvement we have violence growth more. I don’t think that in our grandparents and parents generation was so much killing, and violence as today.
