We
have been hearing for years that children might suffer adverse
effects from playing video games. Granted, children do sometimes get
a little obsessively focused on games and have a harder time knowing
when to stop when compared with adults. Of course, some adults also
have the very same addictive tendencies—just google “deaths
caused by video games” and you'll find stories about several adults
that died from playing a game non-stop for too many sleepless days.

repeatedly saddled with from the media? A number of different
scientific studies have been conducted about video game use, and
there are varied but interesting results. This week, let's discover
what some of these studies have to say about playing video games.
