Video Games

       Have you come across with the world famous video games like counter strike, sudden attack? I bet everyone of you do, even a man who has already become a father is still playing these games to relax himself from stress. Teenagers find that playing video games is more effective than taking part in sports event to relief stress. However, teenagers misuse the benefits of video games and become addicted to it, eventually bringing disaster to them.
      One of the disadvantages is health problems which lead to death. They do not realise how long they spend time on the computer, playing days and nights without any rest and until they do not have enough time for sleep. It is important that teenagers and young adults have an adequate rest after long hours of working in school or office. Besides that, while they are over concentrating on playing computer games, they neglect their diets and finally black out. This causes their parents to worry. Long hours of gaming without any water intake can slow down the functions of the body systems and cells are slowly dehydrated due to evaporation from the skin and can bring to death.
      Playing too much video games can also slow down teenagers studies. This is probably because they do not arrange their leisure time well to complete every work they have. However, this is not only happen in teenagers but workers too, they start sitting infront of the computer access to Internet after their working hours and continue to their games. Some of the teenagers do not have a computer, so they are willing to go to the Internet's cafe and spend time but also do not want to do their homework. This same goes to the young adults.
        Too much games are bad but no one can live under stressful condition. Video games are one of the advance technologies which are able to help us to relax. On the other hand, video games are used most of the time to past time or I should say it is used to fill your leisure time. Spending few hours on the computer can also temporary cut down teenagers worries so that they will not stress out in that time for awhile. It is quite good for teenagers who are having for exam stress and worries.
       Ohter than that, playing video games are able to train their intelligence, reflexes, coordination of the brain and fingers. Many parents seems to agree with that too. Nowadays, most of the kids have their own ipad, tab and even smartphones. Certain games such as puzzles can help to increase kid's imagination and any games that involve calculation will improve their intelligence.
      In conclusion, it is all down to how we treat vidoe games. If it is used wisely, it will definitely bring benefits to us.
