From zeenews.com : "No interest in hobbies, no time for buddies, no appetite for real food - concerned parents may discover that the culprit behind these symptoms in their children is computer games, not drugs."

Sorry, I am going to have to raise the BS flag on this one. I've been playing video games since I was 6 years old. I had plenty of friends who ALSO played video games. We would spend the majority of the outside time playing, because my parents limited my PC and Atari/Colecovision/NES/Genesis time. I graduated #3 in my high school class and graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy where I ALSO played video games. I am a pilot and married now. And I STILL play video games.
The real problem is parents that do not put limits on the kids' video game and PC time. A lot of the kids on here are good examples. I thought it was just an American thing to blame problems on everything except for the actual cause. Most children problems these days are caused by crappy parenting.
