I don't agree with the comments saying this is fearmongering and an obvious call to moderation. I know I can't be the only person who delayed maturity by almost two decades because of video game addiction.

I really like that the author commented on the rage and violence one experiences because of the frustration games can give you, as well as the anger you can have from being interrupted. I have never experienced rage quite like I have gotten from playing games. I have broken several mice, keyboards, and phones from gaming anger over the years. It's the only time I have ever gotten that angry.

Most young people aren't equipped to deal with feeling so out of control, and online internet gaming is unforgiving. Most people can't really comment on gaming rage until they've experienced it for themselves, until they've pulled an all-nighter just to beat someone online or threw their mouse as hard as they could at the wall. It's not normal to get that angry and some personalities can't handle the frustration.

I am glad, though, that I didn't grow up with a smartphone and access to unlimited games, all designed as pay-to-win frustration camps. As bad as it was in the late 90s, early 2000s, there's no way I could maintain moderation as a kid today. The frustration and rage inducing games need to be focused on, and games that promote gambling. How many intelligent or gifted youngsters are wasting their potential on mastering games instead of mastering a skill that benefits society?
