Ohio teen collapses after 5 day gaming marathon

What a noob. Any real gamer knows if you're going on a week-long binge, you need several cases of Mountain Dew and boxes of Hot Pockets to get you through. That's just common-freaking-sense.

You can't fix stupid.

I have 40 acres for my boys to attend to when they are old enough (2 and 4). I have seen what game consoles can do to kids, and this is a fine example, when you let them play ALL the time.

Nothing wrong with them...just limit the time they spend on the damn things and make them go outside and do physical activities as well! I don't understand why kids have no desire to be outside these days...I LOVED it and still do!

It's really all about moderation. I play xox, does it take all my time, no. There are limits in this world and parents need to set those limits. I see it like candy. You tell a kid he can't ever have candy, first time they get it, they make themselves sick.
