Games, could games affect your brain or could it increase your brain's intelligence? What do you think? Should children be allowed to play video games? 

Should children be allowed to play video games?

My answer is yes, why? Video games can’t physically make you dumb depending on what game your playing, but most people think it makes you stupid but none of that is true. Playing games just increases other behaviours that will make you seem dumber like focusing on the game instead of homework. Video games have also been shown to have positive effects on the mind such as perception, attention, memory and decision making. Video games helped fix kids that suffer from lazy eye, playing games improved their eyes to open a lot wider.

Should children be allowed to play violent video games?

Obviously not because kids that play violent video games can increase the person's aggressive thoughts, behaviour and feelings. Playing violent video games can damage the brain and may even increase the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Shooting, killing and fighting games makes an individual’s brain less responsive to violence. The average age for a kid to play violent video games is 16+ because at the age of 16 your brain is mature enough to know what's right and wrong. 

In conclusion I’d like to say that gaming could be good for kids and could not be good. Depending on what game, all games can change your behavior no matter what you play, violent, learning or any game.
