The American
Medical Association wants to call it a psychiatric disorder…addiction to video
games. The organization hopes to point out that this is a very real problem and
it makes suggestions for treatment. In addition, the goal is to get insurance
companies to pay for therapy. The signs are what you expect. The teens holding
up in their rooms, ignoring friends, family, even food and shower, while work
suffers. Of course, there will be a debate. Video game makers don’t seem to
like this at all. If your child plays video games, don’t worry. It’s normal.
It’s just when it becomes excessive that it’s a problem.
We always
appreciate your comments.
