Study Shows Violent Games Can Be Healthy

A recent study conducted by Massachusetts General found that violent video games may be healthy for most children/pre-teens. The violent games provide a safe release of anger and frustration, and also provide socialization as most children/pre-teens are playing these games either with friends in the house or online.

I have to agree with this study. In almost all cases, violent games are not the cause of destructive behavior. I’m not saying they don’t provoke it in children who would behave in that matter anyway, but they aren’t the sole cause.

What do you think? Check out the video and let us know in the comments.

  1. I agree, violent games make people feel better by venting their frustrations. Make someone play a cute game like Barbie Horses and I can assure you that person will be killin hookers in a year or so.
