ya know i agree with some things and not with others i feel that these games that kids are playing (especially the ones that are completely harmless) are ok. what are kids going to do when all of their work is finished and they have nothing else to do? huh? well i tell you, the most probable thing would be for them to talk and jib jab untill class is over, raise a ruckuss, and annoy everyone until they can simply go to the next class and do the exact same thing. what im saying is to all of you "corporate types" is get a life beyond shutting down games and work on shutting down more probable things such as porn sites which is what we have trouble with today!!!
of course, im not saying all games are okay. games like strategy games or the ever popular
"tower defense" games which actually stimulate kids' minds into thinking harder on a solution to a specific problem, while yet they are still having fun. although the games where you must kill the zombie or kick a ball many many feet which are stupid and mind melting. so in turn, playing these games would keep children quiet while classwork is over and also stimulate the brain.
i just thought i would voice my opinion so thanks for reading
sincerely,
