Excessive gaming can have a significant negative impact on people's relationships, education, career, sleep, mental and physical health, maladaptive coping, and stress. Despite this, parents usually ignore the effects until it's too late.
Recently, 12 year old John Wilson was so upset with getting a loss in fortnight that he smashed his computer open and started a fire in the backyard just to burn it, dancing over the flames. His parents were upstairs at the time and were sent into a panic when they heard him smashing the computer downstairs.“All we could hear was him cackling like a maniac and doing this strange jig dance as the computer was being broken.” sniffled the mother as the news reporters filed in.
