Recently, during a school lesson, a teacher spoke out very strongly against computer games and social media. He argued that they are addictive and that they prevent teenagers from developing.
This teacher made me think about it and I have to agree with him. I am myself watching as computer games become the most important thing in life for some of my colleagues, and this is worrying. Instead of systematically studying for school and developing, after returning home, they sit for hours in front of the computers. I believe that parents and the school, and perhaps the state as well, should be more involved in solving this problem. Recently, the amount of time children can spend on computer games and social media has been limited in China, and perhaps this is a direction that should be considered. I am sure that it will be more controlled in the future, because at present, probably not everyone is aware of the consequences of overusing the Internet and computer games.

I'm surprised you're advocating authoritarian solutions to this problem. In a democracy, you have to be more clever if you want to change people's behaviour. Keep thinking, the problem is worth it.
