Parenting Todays Teens Radio
  • Consumed by Video Games (8-18-2010)

     

    PODCAST SCRIPT:

    Playing video games can be a fun activity for you and your teenager to enjoy together. But video games can be an unhealthy activity if they begin consuming all of your teen’s time and attention.

    If your teen is caught up in video games and you can’t get them away from it, then treat it like any other addiction. Intervene with the help of a good counselor who deals with such addictions.

    The bottom line for parents is this…you need to stand beside your kids through thick and thin, but sometimes you need to stand in front of them when it comes to blocking any negative influences or addictions from consuming their life…and that can include video games.
