computer games addiction

I personally think that computer games is alright, however too much of something is never healthy. According to statistics compiled by many schools.Most problems students have in their studies are caused by computer games addiction. So how do you define computer gaming addiction and what are the negative effects of it?
Firstly, i find spending 1 to 2 hours a day playing computer games is normal, and it is definitely not computer gaming addiction, like many parents assume. It is only when you neglect all your school work and evrything else, and computer gaming becomes indispensible, a part of your life, then you are definitely addicted to computer games.
Secondly, many research have shown that computer gaming can help improve or stimulate your reflexes and analytical skills. however, even if it is true, like i have mention earlier, too much of anything is never healthy. Hence, too much of computer gaming is definitely not healthy and obviously does not improve your reflexes or analytical skills.
Thirdly, you may say that computer gaming addiction can improve your gaming skills, and it would help you in your inspiration to become a professional gamer. However, do you think those professoinal gamers are addicted to gaming? they are just doing it as a job or a form of income. They have other piorities in life and computer games is definitely not on the top of the list.
Finally, prevention is better than cure, find out if you are addicted to computer gaming by asking fellow family memebers as people who are addicted are often self-dillusional. It is definitely not worth it to let computer gaming become part of your life.
