What are the effects of playing violent video games to children?

Everyone could prevent invasion of violent games to be access by children by providing children with other medium of entertainment which is a good fun like they may still play games which involves educational learning rather than buying bad stuffs causing children uninterested to schools.

Hi fireheart,
I believe too playing violent games have bad influences to the mind of the children and also too adults. As what I observe many children becomes addicted to playing games which have violent features which results to then becomes too deeply involves which they tend to lose contacts with the healthy way of playing games involving real players. While playing games makes the children confine to a stationary position lacking exercises and rarely mingle with the outside world. Then, I also read too from other articles that some teenagers develop aggressive behavior and even involves in killing spree in some schools inspired to do it from the violent video games which they often play. Thanks for responding.

Playing violent videos games in excessive amount of time makes the children to neglect their study as most of their times is devoted in playing. Thus,it would be better if parents or the students guardian keep an eye to their children gaming addiction. If not totally eliminated need to be minimize and the best things to do is to advices children frequently on the benefit and bad effects of playing videos games. Thanks for responding.

Hi browser,
Yeah, adults know to control self and select which video games to play. While children could be teach to play only educational learning videos and fun games. While, minimizing access to violent videos games it is now the sole responsibility of the parents. Then from the things which you mention aggressive behavior develop when children get bad influences from the violent video games and becomes disobedience to parents. Thus, parents should be aware of the kind of video games which children play and guide them to select only the good ones thus securing children is safe against the bad influences bring by playing unwanted games which often tackles the criminal world and harsh cyber games.thanks for responding.

Addiction comes in man forms and mostly comes from influences of mass media and entertainment advertising. Thus, the addiction which many children experience could be a form of curiosity to test one mind to try every things which have to do with technology. Then, the worst kind of addiction which many children are facing right now is the addiction in playing computer/video games. Then, the act of playing is normal and it becomes not alright when the types of games play by children is full of violent scenes just like in movies.But, in playing video games the child is repetitively expose thus retaining some manners which one get through playing.

Some children becomes disobedient and would not eat on time, skip classes, then become too obsessed that they tend to forget to interact with the social world outside, which is not a good things. It is really disturbing what I heard from a news that a group of teenagers make a killing spree having been inspired by the violent videos games they been playing then put it in reality. Thus, if the child is not mature enough,he tend to get those aggressive behavior in case the parents is unable to explain to them the differences between play and reality. thanks

Mature adults know to control self and not just by playing violent videos games but also some adult sites if they would screen all the video games being play by kids they would be able to protect the mind of kids not to imitate what they see. Thus, it is also important that access to those kinds of videos are eliminated if not totally banned but should be under moderation. Yeah,it is also good to brief children about the good and bad sides of playing videos games so that they would know to avoid the bad fun. Thanks for responding.

hi letranknight,
Yeah, I experience it too and most children are very good in using computer and even play those high past faced video games which of course have violent scenes. The children now days are very smart and the manner games could be play even alone without the presence of playing games with another playmate. Thus, many children becomes obese and get an eye problem. I also have a nephew that is addicted in playing video games and never like to be disturb if i talk to him to stop. He would yell at me and sometimes act like a bully. Thus, many kids if not properly guided or monitor becomes violent too with their behavior, lose some respect to the elderly.
Thanks for responding.

Many forms of media and entertainment gadgets and products which are out in the markets sounds very interesting not only to children but also to adults. Even though the parents could control the manner of video games play by children their are still many problem which exist and most parents could not control it like when children are playing in internet shop, even during or after classes.

They spend a lot of their allowance to play videos games and they are not friendly games at all. Even me I really wonder too, the children becoming smarter now days even me have to catch behind as I myself never know to play those games. Children find it attractive, especially those involving violent games like shooting, attacks with even bloody encounter, Thus, many children becomes aggressive and if not properly monitor may imitate what they play on video games. Thanks for responding.

hi lakota,
That is right as you only implement it in your house to censored the types of video games play in order to protect children mind. Thus, have to advise them to keep away as too much playing video games makes children prone to do violence which hard to control this habit of liking when they already becomes adults. So it is only alright as earlier as possible to keep those violent stuffs away from children and instead encourages them to be involves in mind boggling activity which sharpen their intelligence rather than playing those violent games. Thanks for responding.

your welcome

I notice too a lot of children are fond of playing computer games losing interest to play outdoors like sports and confine in a solitary room like in a home or with groups in internet cafe playing those violent videos games they get satisfaction from it when they were able to shoot or kill the villain and although it is anime. Some look like real with a lot of blood shed which is not good for children to be expose on it as they may imitate it. Thus parental guidance is needed to put restriction or stoping access of children to those violent video games. Thanks for responding.
