Long Response:

1. The article is about how mental health specialists have finally decided this year to classify gaming as addictive. There has been much research about this, and specialists are looking forward to finding ways to treat it.

2. The indications from the article are if control is impaired, like the inability to quit. Other major signs are if gaming takes a large amount of attention away from other activities, or if the continuation of gaming creates negative consequences.

3. An addiction is an uncontrollable want to have or do something. Video game addiction can be just like being addicted to drugs or alcohol - the gamers give up their control to it, and use it to fill the pain of life.

4. I do think video games is a serious problem. I grew up with tons of my friends and family playing excessive video games, and I've always thought that too much of society's time is spent on playing video games. I've known people who stay up until their eyes are bloodshot, and they do instead of homework.

5. I don't play any video games personally. I've played some Mario Kart in the past though, and it's fun to do with friends. Since I was little though, I never enjoyed video games that much because I thought it was borderline stressful.

6. I do have some friends that I think are addicted to video games, but I mostly thought my brother was when he was about 12 years old. He was playing it constantly. What I find interesting is that I mostly know boys who are addicted, which I think is due to society classifying gender roles and saying it's a typical thing to do for boys to play video games.

7. Some solutions are to limit screen time to 1-2 hours a day. One of the things the article emphasized was for parents to not just grab the game and take it away, but first to list the child's priorities in order to help them see where they are coming from. This will prevent a meltdown from the child.
