I was 14 and the first time I talked with my uncle was him berating me over playing video games. That was also the last time I spoke to that fucker.
Yeah it’s also a way to filter all assholes out of your life when they hate on video games. The inability of ‘being able to play’ to just find joy in life is usually a red flag of a raging type A. Like every moment of your life isn’t just for production. We’re not bees.
You never had a kid that spent every free moment (and then some) on video games. Every moment of your life isn't for garnering fake accomplishments in fake worlds, either. It's a problem.
Have you ever considered that it may not be the games doing that, but it being a symptom, serving as a form of escapeism?
I've got personal experience with the addictiveness of games. Reducing them to mere escapism isn't giving game designers enough credit.
