All the gamers in the forum rejoice. Now here is something which u can state to your parents/spouse when they complain about your gaming habits. According to a recent report submitted by EU, gaming is found to do good for kids and "it teaches them essential life skills". There is a fine print though (which u do not need to mention). Kids should not be allowed to play games with ratings 15+. "Video games can stimulate learning of facts and skills such as strategic thinking, creativity, cooperation and innovative thinking, which are important skills in the information society," reads the report. Schools should also embrace healthy video gaming and that too for educational purposes. The report has also encourage schools to advise parents about the ill effects and advantages of gaming to parents.
