Then it will mean restricting him from Peter groups at that early age to give him or her time to focus more on studies than pleasures around video games.

You can't restrict the kid from his peers, however, you can influence your kid by doing the same thing that you want your kid to do. For instance if you want your kid to read books, you also need to read books

I am a writer, most of the books i read are stored online, do I need to carry book for my child to follow me? xD, I don't need to, unless once in a while.

I know one or two of my kid(s) will definitely be addicted to video games, when I can't change the fact, I wouldn't hurt him or her, because the addiction was part of me until I came of age and it was reduced.

Why not? Your youngster can benefit from video games in a variety of ways. Playing simple games with your child can boost his or her mood, encourage relaxation, and decrease anxiety. Learning to cope with loss in video games can also help children develop emotional resilience. Another advantage of video games is the ability to socialise.

Once you can get into gaming with them, it's going to help you shape their gaming habits and put them on the right track.

Yeah man, I believe when I engage with my kids it will help shape their gaming endeavors and help them gain faster experience.

My niece is just 4 years but she's got a good connection with video games. I try as much as I can to give her 2 hours of my time every weekend to help groom her gaming habits and how to play as well as what to get into playing.

xD, it's good you're helping your little niece get into gaming gradually. My niece loves video games too, she's seven years old, already showing flashes of learning how to play the difficult arcade games quicker.

This is a very big thing for the younger one's because they need to learn how to deal with losses, otherwise it's going to be a big problem for them and it's your duty to help them understand it when playing with them.

I had that problem when I was still a teenager. I had a serious difficulty with accepting that I failed because I was obsessed with winning.

xD, your posts always makes me to muse in laughter. Losses is normal in gaming, the children should understand it. If you have one or more who loves video game you can tell them to control their emotions when it comes to video games.

I only talked about reading books, I did not mention anything about what kind of books you need to read. Kids are intelligent enough to find out whether you are reading books on your ipad or playing games.

This is something common problem with most kids. I used to teach some kids when was into academics and I have seen a lot of them that aren't good with accepting failure whenever we conduct inter house sports. The need all the guide in the world to understand it's part of the process.

Explains it well with how kids needs to be guided in such things, so they grow up being better.

The look on the boy's face says it, even with his first position, he's not contented but the excitement on the girls face is charming. But wait, what happened to the 2nd position taker 🤔?
