My thoughts exactly...
As a nanny, i have a 'no gaming' rule. I focus on reading or playing actual person to person games with the kids i work with.... being a child is a time to expand on who you are and use your imagination... video gaming doesn't teach children anything, it's purely an entertainment and should be treated as such, and if played, should be done in moderation, if at all.
