Yes! Teens should be out with their friends and interacting in society. If they are always glued to Video Games they become like a couch potato with poor eating habits and no exercise. They should come home and interact with family, sit down at the dinner table, do their homework and then they can have an hour or two for their video games. Teens that don't get out with friends and socialize end up being reclusive.

Well, the rules at my house are: 30 minutes on a school night and a hour per day on the weekends. You can play 1 hour per day on holidays (Spring Break, Winter Vacation.) Summertime really doesn't have a limit, but we don't play for more than 2 hours per day. No games until homework is comple Dont listen to this........this is bull..........they don't know what they are talking about...........this isn't true...........play as long as you want.............rebel against your parents............................its your life not theirs..............

Given the potentially traumatic content in some video games, yes.

Just ask yourself the question: Would you want your 6 year old daughter to play a game in which she rapidly slaughters Zombies with a giant bear strappped to a AK-47, while playing Deadrising 2?

who ever wrote that was stupid because you cant strap a bear to an AK-47

The same reason there's no time limit for watching TV, or reading, or Surfing the internet. Unless you're talking about children, people can choose to spend their free time however they want.
