Gaming impacts the child’s psychology

Everyone likes to play games. Whether it’s of childhood age or an adult; playing games makes a person get ready for the upcoming challenges or in short, it refreshes mind and body. But what if a child plays a lot? Or what if the addiction to playing games makes him/her unable to grasp the other skills? What if playing gamer dominates your child’s mind and hinders in his capabilities or gaining of skills?

It is said that games activate the child’s mind. Children become more flexible from the body and games help them to reach the goals faster than a child who doesn’t play games. Moreover, gaming impacts the child’s psychology and is difficult to define as if on one hand such the games enhance the basic skills of the child then on the other hand it makes them sensitive towards such dimensions. It is a distinct psychiatric disorder that makes them remain still with their mobile phones for hours.

Video games or online gaming impacts the psychology of a child in a way that he/she remains connected with the skilled senses of detecting movements, visuals, controlled visions, and their minds become responsible for detecting the emotions, where the learning becomes underdeveloped.

They lose their interest in the things they don’t like and above all they become more like to attract diseases like obesity and mood disorders.

Games make the kids virtually non-existent members of reality. They try to adapt to the nature of the games and always try to connect their surrounding with their own rules. In contrast, online games have been proved to be more harmful to kids than those played offline.

Playing games enhances their motor skills, stimulate the nerves and make them reduce the reaction time for any question asked to them. Moreover, they become capable of doing their daily routine tasks at a faster rate. But inclining more towards playing games hinder the kids to manage their work or simple tasks.

Gaming impacts the psychology of the child. They get disconnected from reality. And nowadays children play online games like they are going to approach some degrees in such categories. Furthermore, the violent media makes it more difficult for kids to remain as kiddish as they are assumed to be.

Playing manually (in some sense) enhances the motor skills, makes the brain run faster, and develops their basic skills also but online gaming make them remain inside their houses and be in their imaginative world of the games they play.

Playing online games make the kids intellectually lazy. It affects the range of their cognitive skills, reasoning, memory, and perception. Though, they become capable of thinking about the objects in three dimensions and enhance their capability to understand the academic topics. The critical implications of developing a career, and be a part of the race of success make the kids lose the psychological path which they gain in heredity from their parents or family. In reality, gaming involves addictive qualities. While playing the games human brain becomes wired with unpredictability and they start living with the fantasies of their satisfaction with the games.
