Computer Games

Computer games are so appealing and so popular because they offer unlimited hours of fun as there is always a game to play and improve on. they have become an alternative to parenting for many families which is a potentially bad thing for the children as they could see violent computer game characters as role models as oppose to their parents. However, this does not mean that games should be labelled the cause of violence, as it is the parents allowing too much time, or just people who cannot control their emotions and take it too seriously. Games should be seen as a way of relaxing and enjoying free time. Computer games only make you isolated if you let them, however if you balance your time between socialising and going out, then there should not be a problem with isolation. constant use of networked games can make you isolated as you may begin to think you are socialising online, but this is not very interactive, it just adds to the gaming experience, not your social skills.
