Question

My opinion on video games!!!

Answer 1

Claim: While some people think video games are bad for your health and make children dumber, they don't. The children let the games get into thier heads and think what they can do in the games they can do in the real world. Also the games are not bad for the kids health, the kids just eat too much junk food which gets them fat. The parents don't care about the children and thier health, which is why the children act like they do.

Answer 2

That is only a quarter of it too

Answer 3

Video games can somehow affect the minds and eyesight of the players. As many soon get addicted to the video games, it removes sleep and causes health issues. I partly agree how it does not make children dumber, however, it really depends on the games these children play. If it is a violent game, the children are soon wanting violent materials which are putting lives in danger.
Most parents give their children technology to distract them and avoid being annoyed. As their children grow up, they are so addicted to those devices and become too lazy to do anything. Once the parents realize it, it is too late to punish these once known as children.

Answer 10

Yes this is what I have said in the past and nobody believed me. Now we are in the future and people are realizing that video games aren't bad for you. The kids are bad for them. Games do nothing to children. I agree with Elsa only because she states that SOME video games are bad and that some of the games make children want hurtful items like firearms, and swords, and stuff like that. Those items can't hurt people. The people hurt people. Just like everyone blaming guns for killing people. If I put a firearm on the table, will it shoot? No, because guns do nothing to people. People hurt and kill people. If the kids play Minecraft it can teach them how to add. If I have 32 wood and my friend has 32 wood. I give my wood to my friend and my friend now has 64 wood. So, my point is some kids play games that are bad and some play games that are good.

Well... I agree with Elsa, video games do really affect the way you are ESPECIALLY in the young ones, they absorb everything they experience and take those experiences into real life

Answer 25

Fun fact: Video Games can actually help with eyesight.
Spot the difference
Spot the glitch (literally was an eye test I had to do, I kid you not)
In first person shooter games, there are sometimes jump scares.
The faster you can spot the thing trying to scare you, the faster you can aim and pull the trigger to kill it.

"Playing "action" video games improves a visual ability crucial for tasks like reading and driving at night, a new study says. The ability, called contrast sensitivity function, allows people to discern even subtle changes in shades of gray against a uniformly colored backdrop" (https://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2009/03/090329-video-game-vision.html).

Although video games, like other things such as food, are only good in moderation. Excessive playing (such as every single living moment of the day, especially in the dark) could indeed cause damage to your eyesight.

Some video games, like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (A game where you fight and kill enemies, but also can help people along the way), include situations where you have to choose between right or wrong. This can and will help a child establish and improve a moral compass.
If the person playing chooses the option to help people being oppressed by a group? They get light side points.
If they choose the option to threaten to kill someone if they don't give them what they want? They get dark side points.
