I often pick up a copy of the Metro in the mornings these days and one jumped out at me this morning declaring “Gaming Children ‘unfit for school’”. The article was a short piece about primary school children falling asleep in class, missing meals (although if they’re missing meals in school I’m not sure that’s entirely their fault) and being unable to concentrate.
The reason for this, as declared by one particular teacher, is that they are addicted to gaming.
This may well be shooting fish in a barrel but let’s dissect that a little.
