I think it really depends on the child, and the parents. My wife thinks games are invented by the devil (figuratively) and starts complaining after my son plays them for half an hour, but she’ll happily have him watch hours of youtube without blinking an eye.
I’d rather have him do something that stimulates his mind. But I’d still not want it to be all day long. There’s slso the fact he gets incredibly cranky when playing them because he feels like he should always win.
- nunodonato 3y agoI'm more or less in the same place, but been moderately successful in convincing my wife that certain games are very good and much better than watching tv (or any other passive thing). My kids hates to loose, and especially in the beginning would have very bad reactions which would feed my wife's point that games are bad. I just started picking better games (low-level challenge, more fun and exploration)
- consoomer 3y agoThis is one of those funny things... my wife will rant about Japanese anime being garbage and then watch Korean drama for an hour. You have to pick your battles, friend!
