Ways Video Games Are Harmful
          Even the scientists know that video games are harmful for teens. They have information and evidence about how games influence the brain of a teen. Did you know that by playing to many video game’s your brain releases a chemical called dopamine. The result is that the brain is hardwired which means that your brain longs for more video games time so teens get so addicted to play video games 24/7. By these studies of the brain shows why about 8.5% of teens develop and addiction to video games. These teens are more likely to skip school, receive poor grades, and have social problems.I know you might be thinking how video games can affect kids in receiving poor grades. In addition, when teens get addicted to video games they forget  about schoolwork or any kind of work they only think of playing the video games. Some of the teens spend more time with video games than with friends because it  allows them to escape into a fantasy world. One that happens it is difficult for some teen to land back into reality.
   The law of California says that video games that contain violent scenes should not be sell to kid only to teens that are 18 and up, However the parents buy the games for there kids. In my opinion teens should be protected from violent video games. I truly believe that the can cause a lot of damage to the brain of a teen. A lot of teens who play video games nowadays, i’ve seen few became more violent from playing these games. But many have developed some reality issues. For example when the layer cant kill some one from the video games they take out the anger they have inside on other people that kind of behavior seems to be one of the problems because the hurt other not just himself / herself. This means that teens addicted to video games show a bad side of himself/ herself and they bring the life of an addicted video-gamer outside the video games.
