science summary

It is a major conflict in our society today, are video games good or bad for our children. Some people say it rots our minds and others say to an extent It is beneficial and helps out the kids in certain categories of learning. A study at Oxford University was conducted to test this important question that everyone has an opinion on and they came up with an answer. This study suggest that video game playing for less than an hour a day is linked with better adjusted children and teenagers. It found that the children who participated in less than one hour of video games a day were associated with being better adjusted than those who had never played or those who were on video games for three or more hours. To me, this is a breakthrough for the children and parents of the future and I completely agree with this study. Video games are very helpful when it comes to adapting to your environments and overcoming a situation you've never been put in. Yet other forms of learning are very straight forward and you either know or you don’t.
