WORKSHOP ON THE HARM OF ONLINE GAMES AND CIGARETTES

Games are known to be one of means of entertainment ever since the invention of computer and the outburst of Internet. More and more new online games with various and nice structures attract a lot of young people. However, in our society today, there is a large number of young people that pass the boundary of entertainment to addiction. Net games houses are opened widely and active 24 hours a day in big cities and even in rural areas. Class performance, intellectual capacity and strength decline because of spending too much time playing virtual games. The change in everyday routine of many young people makes families and  schools be concerned. Moreover, negative thought and violence when addicting to games can cause change in your personality. There are many tragical cases that killers kill their own family members because of lacking money to play games. The problem is that awareness of the harm of online games should be realized soon and the intervention of families and schools are necessary. Instead of playing games, we should encourage individuals to develop their talents for music, song composing, sports, painting or participating in social activities. Young generation of the country needs to work hard for not only their specialization but also their personality and morality. The goal of dedication to build homeland, the ideal of good human life must be multiplied and nursed early even when they are still young. Let games be a useful mean of entertainment. Don’t let games control players’ lives.
