the world of computers has risen...yeah it's true..proofs can be observed on teens today...they love to play online games as they were able to chat and make friends through it..not to mention the joy that it brings and the new friends they meet...but somehow, this activity really has a disadvantage to them too..first and foremost, to their studies and behaviour...the worst is, they also spent money to play..what should the parents do to control such problem??

Parents could install some programs that would regulate the time that thier children uses the computer and would log the sites that they've been to. There are actually lots of programs like that that can be dowloaded.

Gaming can be positive, some of the games can train your skills and mind, reaction. But they should realise that using the computer too often can cause health problems, virtual friends can`t replace the real ones. Parents should travel together with their children, send them to sport or art clases. There are many interesting things in the world, not only the virtual world. I am not a parent, but still, I wouldn`t be happy if my children would spend whole day gaming.

I believe as parents we have to be responsible enough to keep an eye on what our children are doing in all aspects of life, not just computers. I have time limits placed on how long my children are permitted on the internet and how long I will let them play games online. I always know where my children are and what they are doing. I think it's just part of the job of being a parent. I cannot see how my children could get away with spending money on a game on the internet without me knowing about it.
