CONCLUSION:
The benefits of children in playgrounds are tangible and contribute positively to physical, social, and mental well-being.Because of the typical violent nature of some games, people associates playing such videos games with rude, anti-social, and violent behaviours in the children.

Video games do have an important place in society, but without any proper control and management on the part of parents, they will continue to negatively influence younger generation and encourage physical inactivity, disrespect, and violence. Taking a stand against inappropriate video games and managing the time spent in this activity is a critical responsibility for everyone, hence parents should keep a check on this issue and make their children clearly aware of the limited use of this thing for their positive development.
