Playing Video games good or bad ?

            Are video games good or bad ? it can be both, Video games are frowned upon by parents as time-wasters, and worse, some education experts think that these games corrupt the brain.  Playing violent video games are easily blamed by the media and some experts as the reason why some young people become violent or commit extreme anti-social behavior. Althogh this opinion came from the education experts, but not all of video games are bad for you.

            But many scientists and psychologists find that video games can actually have many benefits – the main one is making kids smart.  Video games may actually teach kids high-level thinking skills and creativity, also it depend on what kind of game that they play and what rate they play the game.

            Not only that, parent also have to control their kids when they play the game by chosing the right game for them and the time use when they play the video games. Parent is the most close to the kids when thay play the video games . parent have to know what good to play and what not good to play.

In my point of view playing video games sometime can give you many benefit but also can give you negative effect too. It depend on what type of game, ages, and parent control. Kids with ages around 7 – 10 really needs parent control when they play video games and to chose the right game for them.

The sad fact is parent only care about their kids happines they does not think the negative effect, video game can give you benefit like involve and enchanting skill adng thinking skills, for example when kids games like “Cut The Rope, they trains their brain to come up with creative ways to solve puzzles and other problems in short bursts.

Playing video games sometimes can give you many benefit but it depend on what game you play and what rate of the game you plays and also parent control really needs when kids play video games not only by them self but also with their friends.
