Video games most harm girls

The researchers' analysis has shown that past time playing video games has not caused problems in social development, while their peers have had a weaker development of social skills.

Little girls playing video games that are harder to make friends in later life than young people have shown the results of a study.

American and Norwegian scientists have analyzed 870 children, between six and twelve years, and have concluded that the time spent playing games has created no problem in social development, until their peers have had the weakest social skills development.

Researchers have also studied behavioral differences compared with whether children play games with strangers or in friends.

Those who have played themselves have had the slightest chance of developing important relationships in life.

Also, young girls who have had a more obesity problem have spent more time playing games, as have children who have lacked friends and who have been less accepted in society.
