"Free" post #3. "Computer and Video Games are harmful"



     I think, that almost everybody will agree that we are living in a world that materially and intellectually has been created by high technologies. There are a lot of technological devices that help people in all spheres of life: at work, at home, etc. One of the devices is used more often than others – it is a computer. We hardly find a person who at least once a day doesn’t use a computer for a number of different reasons. 
    There are a lot of advantages in using computers for sure, but very often people do not notice how they are losing track of time sitting behind the monitors. Everybody pretends that it is natural in a century of an intellectually developed world, but actually it is already a problem of addiction. People mostly use computers for entertainment, and computer games together with video games have the most destructive effect on people’s minds.    
       Children playing computer games injure their health through lack of sleep, eyestrain, headache, lack of exercising, and cutting themselves from the live communication with other children. For grown – ups, playing computer and video games may lead to bad relationships with family and spending money in vain, because very often games require buying some special features etc. So, we can make an assumption that computer and video games can be   addictive, expensive, can hurt relationships, cut you from the real world. People should know limits in using technological devices.
