But the best thing is to have them do their classwork where you can see them and know what they are doing. Unfortunately, I don't have any special tricks.
VIDEO CHAT GAMES FOR KIDS HOW TO
I have parents often asking me how to get their kids off of video games and back onto their classwork. Kids can become overly involved and even obsessed with video games, which I've been seeing a lot lately, especially in kids who are doing only online learning. Studies have also shown that the more realistic and repeated the exposure to violence, the greater the impact on children. Studies of children exposed to violence have shown that they can become immune or numb to violence, imitate the violence they see and show more aggressive behavior with greater exposure to violence.
There is growing research on the effects of video games on children. Examples of video games not acceptable for children because they have these themes include Grand Theft Auto, Call of Duty, and Mortal Kombat. They promote the killings in war-like scenarios, sometimes criminal behavior, disrespect for the law and other authority figures, sexual exploitation or violence towards women, racial, sexual and gender stereotypes, and foul language and obscene gestures. While some games have educational content, many of the most popular games emphasize negative themes. However, there's always the possibility that kids can connect with not-so-friendly people out there, too. There are multi-player games, which allow kids to play with their friends across different platforms. Video gaming is a multi-billion dollar industry, and video games have become very sophisticated and realistic. Many kids spend large amounts of time playing them, although the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends kids have more than two hours total of screen time a day. Video gaming has become a popular activity for people of all ages since the 1980s. Is this a good thing? Well, that depends. With in-person activities for kids on hold a lot during the past year, video games have taken the place of ways for kids to connect while being socially distanced.
