IS THIS EPIDEMIC SPREADING?

I’m going to tell you a true story about some friends of mine andtheir Internet games. My friends are 50+ years and stay on their computers at home an average of 5-6 hrs a day playing Internet games. They do this on a daily basis usually all of them on the same game site. These games are free to play, and the chances of winning money on these game sites are as rare as winning the lotto, that is of course unless it's poker. It's to the point that we can't get together because they don't want to get away from the computer. Many times I call them and they say they are in a tournament or trying to win their badge. Even today we are still concerned about our children playing to many Internet games and watching to much television. So should adults be on the game sites so much? There are 1.5 million people over the age of 21 playing on this one website that my friends play on! Do you know how many other websites like this one is out there? YES! THIS EPIDEMIC HAS SPREAD TO OLDER ADULTS? Do you think we should be concerned?Tell me your story, do you know someone like this?
