Coping with Gaming Addiction

Posted by michael on from the first-step-is-admitting-you-have-a-problem dept.

Several readers submitted this story in the Washington Post about gaming addiction in adolescents and adults. The main sources of the story are two people who get paid for solving this problem, so they have an incentive to make it sound scary and widespread, but on the other hand, most Slashdot readers probably have a... friend... who spends too much time playing video games.

    Listen here fuckface. I'm black, and those names ARE stupid. Please don't try to convince the rest of the world that this is black "culture". When the majority of names for children are based on consumer products then all you are showing is that your lifestyle is morally bankrupt.
