However, gaming is not bad at all provided you are monitoring which game they are playing and what platform they are using for the same. According to the recent research, one in five parents never checked out what their children are doing online, and 32% of them never paid attention to the ratings of the game their children are playing.
Another report says that 86% of the parents allow their children to play the games that have been recommended only for the older children.
To ensure the online protection of your children, take the following measures:

  1. Monitor your children's online activities
    Make online safety a part of your children's normal behavior. Don't impose the instructions; instead, start with telling them not to open the messages from strangers and not to accept the friend requests of the people they don't know.
