i agreeof course,brain is like a sponge,but if you forbid them to do something, you create the opposite effect, and they want to do this even more, i guess its a phase that one should grow out off, and we should pray they do, but allow them to do what they want, i used to play games all the time, because it was my escape from 'reality' of bad school and no support. Let us not create anything prison-like for them to want to escape from and just encourage other forms of play without forcing. Peace

My son went to a Sudbury school, where he played video games a lot.. He renewed his interest in playing guitar because of Guitar Hero, and has gotten quite good (if I may say so myself :-) He takes lessons and I never have to make him practice -- he does it all the time, of his own free will

I think this is one aspect upon which I cannot agree on. Obviously a child is not going to act violently and say "I am violent because of the video game" but nevertheless research has proven that video games do make children more violent. Not to mention that they get absolutely no exercise, and some children never really grow out of their video game mindset. I know that video games can be great learning tools, but that is true only if you study how the games actually work and their algorithms.
