Recently I came across an interesting article published on the e-magazine called 'The real truth'. I personally found this article very intriguing and beneficial read especially for the parents who have children that have reached video gaming age.

I find it relevant to link any sort of awareness to the pandemic that we are living in. We do know this as a fact that covid19 pandemic has rigorously highlighted things like 'quarantine', 'isolation, 'lockdown', 'SOPs', 'preventive measure', and et cetera. Words we rarely used pre-covid.

Due to isolation and lockdowns, video games have played a vital role in killing time and being an excellent source of entertainment. But as physical activity for children such as walking out the door and playing ball games with other kids decreased, what is the impact video games shall have on them now? For adults, it is not a problem. We have witnessed both effects in the age of maturity. We know that this is not an actual world. It is unreal and especially it is not a matter of life and death. But the children who are growing up in this pandemic era and playing video games that are PUBG and worse, they have access to these unknown battlefields through smart phones, are they going to escape the realities of the world through this and deny the existence of a real world that is out there? Are video games really a stress reliever or it is just a gate way to the cyber world that is distancing our future generation from reality?
