Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

Playing computer games is a waste of time. Children should not be allowed to play them.

Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Playing games is one of the popular trends nowadays among children. However, personally I agree with the statement that playing a computer game is a waste of time. I feel this way for two reasons, which I will explore in the following essay.

To begin with, Playing a computer game is not help us to face the real world. A computer game is totally a virtual world. Children who plays a game on the computer are totally unaware of the real world. Even he/she does not know how to play the same game in the real world. It is popular nowadays because of the lack of playgrounds around the vicinity where children live but unfortunately, it does not help them gain success in the real world game. My personal experience is a compelling example of this. Last month, when I visited my uncle's house, which is in a city and meet with my cousin I saw a similar situation in my cousin's behavior. He is crazy about computer games. He plays lots of games the whole day and even he forgot to eat and drink and also his homework which was given to him by the school teachers. But when I took him to a nearby tennis ground to play tennis with him he didn't know how to play and hit the ball. Even if he started hitting, he missed most of the ball. I felt surprised that he played tennis the whole day when he was at home, but here he didn't even catch the bat. That's how I realize he had no idea of real-world games.

Secondly, children who play games all the time often forget to do everyday work. As a children, they have lots of things to do. They have their breakfast, launch, dinner, homework, etc. Whenever they play games on a computer they often forget their everyday routine. It also has a negative effect on their health. Their eye can easily be affected and most of the growing children have their eye problems. For instance, I have already mentioned my cousins. When he plays the video game on his computer he forgets about his daily homework. If he continues the game he played, it will negatively affect his health and also he will get a poor grade in his final examination.

In conclusion, I am of the opinion that computer games negatively affect the children and they should not be allowed to play them. I feel this way because it will not help them to face real-world scenarios and they also will not get success in their study because of lack of concentration.

---------------------
Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:

para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.

So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:

reasons == advantages or

reasons == disadvantages

for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.

or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
