What Are The Effects Of Online Games To Students?

Good question. As the advent of the internet, online games is more and more popular among the students. They try to get the excitement through the game. I think the effects on them is totally negative, wasting money and time. What a students should do is to concentrate  on the academy, get the high marks  in their academy achievement. If they tried of the study, they could seek for another kind of entertainment instead of the online games, e.g. The sports, running, basketball  and something like these. Online game could cost much time, few can spare it as a student. Secondly, sitting by a computer for a long time, is not good to our sights and skeleton. Thirdly, charge on internet and gamecards is a great sum, some of students can't afford this because they playing the game in private, without their parent's knowing. So once they are addicted, they would try hard find some illegal approach to get the money. This is my opinion. Thanks

I feel it is a major distraction to me. I want to play and not study.

It's a fact that my 10 yrs girl get addicted to this one site wizard101. First, she asked for $10 and then later $25.  How could a site do this to a young girl of 10.  When she couldn't get more money to get to play more areas and she cries and can't get to sleep.  Parents .. Watch out.

It lessen their time for studies.
