26. Do violent video games cause behavior problems?

Scholars view on the subject of  influence of computer game's on the teenage aggression now divided. On the net you can meet the articles that defend computer games and said that men's aggression released in the game will not give way on the real person. But there are example that connect increased aggression with computer game. For example teenage guy in Russian backwoods killed his father with hammer because he took off and hided his keyboard. After killing his father boy took back his keyboard and simply went to his computer to finish his game. Does this fact prove that culprit of the murder was computer. Not at all, the boy didn't show friendliness towards his classmates, he was unsociable at school and other life. It possible that another motive can lead to such a issue.

Some of scientists claim that games who spend their computer time in playing violent game are prone to execution the crime, they are never help his family and friends and they don't reveal compassion to surrounding them people. That happens because the threshold of susceptibility to the scenes of violence and humiliation in such people decrease dramatically so long as they observe them every day and take that as normal.

But here not clear cause-and-effect relation. Is it violent person by it nature sits behind the screen and kills in tonnes enemies and aliens thereby decrease his level of violence. In other case he lead it to the surrounding him people. Or nice and balanced person first carried away by violent computer games, then he became aggressive himself. There is no definite answer to this question. But fact is that children that play violent computer game are prone to the violence and suppression the weaker ones.

As a rule plots of that games consist of fighting, shooting, killing with good reward to the main character.  Often for teenage boy's or girl's brain virtual and real world  aren't different. They easily can confuse them and behave in real world in the same manner as in the virtual one, because their mind isn't strong enough for such a job.
