    Yeah. Games are a different beast, and teach you some good skills.

    I would encourage gaming over, say, watching lots of Mario and Spongebob and Minecraft videos on YouTube in a maddeningly random walk where nothing ever finishes and there is never a plot. AAAAAAGH!

    My partner’s kid, seven years old, does this. I try to stay sane throughout, and watch along, to see if I can understand why they do this.

    I sometimes suspect it’s a devious experiment to see if an adult brain can be literally cooked by its own rage and confusion.
