Video Game Addiction: A Parent's Guide to Freeing Your Child from the Grip of Video Game Addiction

By Lawrence Salerno

Video games can be quite entertaining for children as well as the whole family, given the right circumstances. Studies have shown that kids who play certain kind of games appropriate to their age at moderate levels suffer from little to no harm at all. However, when a child becomes more engrossed in video games than other interests, it's easy to become concerned as a parent, especially if the obsession lasts longer than what might be considered just a 'passing phase.' As you probably already know, video game addiction is a real problem, with real consequences. This book was written to help you identify whether your child is suffering from an actual addiction, or whether he or she is simply passionate about playing video games. You will be provided with practical insight into properly addressing your child's current level of exposure to video games, thereby preventing or remedying a possible addiction. Much like other types of addictions, approaching the situation appropriately is crucial because taking the wrong approach could prove to be just as problematic as the addiction itself. The good news is, no matter how far along the addiction is, there are numerous ways to intervene and get your child back on the right path. So what are you waiting for?
