Presentation of the topic
As the industry of video games is thriving, more concerns are being raised about the way video games—particularly violent ones—influence children’s development. Parents are afraid that video games will make their children antisocial and some voices claim that violent video games might make people violent in real life. However, research has shown that it is hard to establish a connection between playing violent video games and becoming a violent person. Furthermore, there are also people who claim video games encourage creativity because of the player has to engage with the game actively and make decisions while playing it.
