Computer games are one of those, which there is many games developed for an educational purpose, and if they used in accurate way kids will benefit.for example games which teach kids alphabet and numbers in early age or more games that need a brain reflexion.

Secondly, parents must be involved in this entertainment and assume their mean role which is controlling their kids, by determinating the time of playing and kind of games as well, and more than that play with theme sometimes, and a give my experience as a example when I was kids I used to play a memory games that chows a different identique pictures than ask you to remember theme.

We are expecting: No. of Words: 350 while No. of Different Words: 200
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.

More content wanted.
