        Game companies have zero responsibility in this. Parents, if you don't want your 6 year old playing video games all day then don't let them.

        I would normally agree, but games can be engineered to evoke addictive behavior quite easily. Parents can still pull the plug though.

        CAN games be engineered to evoke addictive behavior? I don't believe that they can. They can BE addictive but engineered that way? hmm...? 🤔

        Does that mean they are going to stop shipping Heroine and start to ship Methadone instead?

        I let my sons play video games ever since they were small. They both were A students, and graduated from college. The key is discipline

        If they really want to prevent addiction, then they should fund the recognition and treatment

        In Communist China, video games decide how long you play... but in Soviet Russia video games play you.

        And let's say it works and reduces addiction. Won't that affect their profits negatively?
