The World Health Organization (WHO) has announced that it will add “gaming disorder” to the 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11), which will be released this year, and will be classified as a mental illness. The domestic classification of diseases will soon follow the WHO’s recommendations for change, and serious gaming addiction is expected to be officially treated as a mental illness soon. Faced with their children’s gaming addiction, many parents are often at a loss as to what to do, either letting their children go or sending them to some mandatory Internet addiction treatment facilities. In particular, in recent years, there have been a number of Internet addiction cessation institutions in society, and due to the lack of treatment standards, many of them only act on experience and use unreliable withdrawal methods such as electric shocks and super physical exercise to treat Internet addiction, which seriously endangers the physical and mental health of young people, and some students have even lost their lives as a result. Some game addicts may endure the pain of the disease for a long time without getting the attention and treatment they deserve, and it is even less likely that they will be covered by health insurance funds or have access to public health resources. Excessive worry and anxiety, in turn, can encourage over-aggressive treatment, which may damage the child’s health. In fact, mental illness is not the same as what we usually call “crazy”, nor is it “mentally abnormal”. Game addiction exists for many children who lack self-control. Many parents are also distressed by this. Don’t let the game ruin your childhood.
