From the article: “China has long held a dim view of video games, calling them "electronic drugs" a few years ago. It only allows those under 18 to play online games for one hour, between 8 pm and 9 pm local time, on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.”

Maybe that totalitarian regime is onto something? A broken clock can be right… etc.

I'm not talking about video games specifically. My point is much more generic.
not really imho.

It should not fall to the state to regulate it, but to the parents to teach and raise the child. How did the grandparents do it when electronics hadn't existed back then?
