Well there are a couple of assumptions in that article and these responses one of them being who said girls dont play videogames i know quite a few that do maybe not as much as most of my friends that are guys but still some. Also video games themselves arent the cause of the negative effects its the time spent playing them instead of being productive and honestly of the people who dont play games which spend the time being productive? Plus while guys spend more time on games and things girls (this is a generalization) usually spend more time then guys on hygenic issues I know a few who wake up as much as 2 to 3 hours before they have to do anything to get ready couldnt this be used better? As for ADD and ADHD I believe personally that this is an excuse for other things but this isn't about that. As for motivation i suppose this is true but, its not just boys I believe the cause for this lack of motivation is partially due to the great rise in technology and having more things be done for us. For example we no longer wash clothes by hand or dishes really. All of these things instill less and less of the value of hard work. Kids think they can do just the minimum and throw the rest in the "machine" and let it do the work. Also the restrictments on child abuse which i am strictly against dont get me wron are a huge part of it part of the motivation used to be "do this so you dont get smacked" anyway thats how i feel on this whole issue although i doubt most will read my whole rant.
