Help kids kick their video game habit

A VIDEO clip in which a mother fiercely blamed computer game developers and players in a WeChat group for wasting her son's time and causing him to fail his exams has struck a chord with many parents. China Youth Daily comments:

The mother said that her son, an eighth-grade middle school pupil, performed so badly in the exams that he got scores lower than the class average in all the subjects. "You, the group, are killing my son! You will kill yourselves later!" she posted in a social media group of computer gamers that her son was a member of.

According to the mother, it was computer games that caused her son's failure in the exams. Her son was so addicted to computer and smartphone games that he played all day, without studying.
