Online games are like a double-edged sword, which not only brings us entertainment and leisure, but also quietly erodes the physical and mental health of minors. Recently, Hong Mingji, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), sparked a widespread social discussion like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, suggesting that the state should completely ban online games for minors.
You might say, aren't online games just "electronic candy" for kids? How did it become an "electronic ***"? Yes, online games do bring short-term pleasure, but over-indulgence can be devastating for minors. In reality, it is not difficult to see examples of children abandoning their schoolwork and even sacrificing sleep and health in order to play games. Anti-addiction system? It's just a "paper door" that the kids can always find a way around.
Therefore, Committee member Hong's proposal is not only a suggestion, but also a call and cry for the future generation. A complete ban on online gaming for minors may sound extreme, but behind it is a deep concern for the healthy growth of children. Children who grow up in front of screens need more outdoor activities, human interactions, and real-world experiences.
Of course, some people will say, isn't banning online games too one-size-fits-all? Can we think differently, such as limiting the game time and optimizing the game content? These recommendations are certainly worth considering, but in reality, they are often difficult to implement. Instead of endlessly tug-of-war between regulation and anti-regulation, it is better to solve the problem at the root and keep children away from online gaming.
Don't forget, children are the future of the country and the hope of the nation. We can't let them lose their way in the virtual world, let alone let them lose their fighting spirit in the maze of electronics. A complete ban on minors' online games is a choice of the times and an awakening of a nation.
Therefore, let us praise the suggestions of Hong Mingji and shout for the healthy growth of children. Let's work together to keep minors away from online gaming and embrace a healthier and brighter future!
