What
it Means to be Addicted |
Are you 'hooked' on anything?
T.V.? Computer Games? Chocolate Bars? Sport? Fishing? Bikes?
John is 'hooked' on computer games.
He loves playing them more than anything else. He can't go a day without
playing them - he has become addicted to them.
Playing computer games can be fun
and exciting but look carefully at some of the negative effects it has
on John.
He
gets restless when he's not playing them |
|
His
eyes get tired with the concentration |
|
|
When
he starts playing he finds it hard to stop, his homework often
doesn't get done. |
He
often misses out when his friends are doing other things |
|
|
He
always wants a win and feels bad when the game
beats him. |
He
always has to borrow money to play, and it makes him unpopular |
|
|
|
Sometimes,
he has stolen money to play, and that makes him feel bade about
himself |
|
Can you think of anything negative
about things you are 'hooked' on?
