Family Lives - Online Gaming

Many parents will be familiar with the image of their child hunched over their computer or console, eyes fixed in concentration on the screen, oblivious to what's going on around them for hours on end.

If the gaming starts affecting family life, if your child starts losing touch with friends, if you notice a behavioural change, for example they are becoming withdrawn or agressive, then address the issue immediately.

You can contact us on our helpline if you are concerned about a family member.

Please visit the Online Gaming page on the Family Lives website for more information.
