Question

I had to write a argumentative essay on how fortnite was addictive and I was just wondering if I need to edit. Do you wonder what your kid is playing all the time and is it affecting them? Kids/teens are playing a video game called Fortnite and parents and teachers are debating if this game is an addiction or just an amusement. Parents, teachers, and scientists are trying to figure out the outcome of this issue if it is addicting. Some people think that this game is just an amusement and something for kids to enjoy but others think it is an addiction and that it is affecting them. Although Fortnite is an amusing game that kids can have fun with, we need to understand that kids play it too much because they can be affected in school and themselves because of not finishing their work, and it is also affecting their mental health, and it is a big distraction with life at home as well. First, why Fortnite is an addiction is because kids will not be able to get their work done in class. In the article "Fortnite-Addiction or Amusement" it states “Teachers are finding that this is the hottest topic of conversion, and they are spending all their time at home playing this game, forgetting about their academic responsibilities" (Crouch 13). This explains that kids are talking about Fortnite instead of doing their school work. One time when I was at school we were doing a school project and I got assigned with classmates that liked to play Fortnite and that is all they talked about during the time we had to do the project and I did pretty much all the work. In conclusion, kids are spending way too much time talking about it instead of working at school. I Next, why Fortnite is an addiction is because it could be affecting their own health. According to the author of the article "Fortnite-Addiction or Amusement" it states "According to Psychology Today, "[too much screen time] can unintentionally cause permanent damage to their still-developing brains" (Crouch 10). This explains that playing video games can cause permanent damage to their brains. To explain further this means when looking at a screen for too long this may cause their permanent damage to their brains because they are still growing. In conclusion, too much screen time can cause permanent damage to the brain unless already fully developed. On the other hand, Fortnite can be an amusing game by it being free for everyone. According to the text it states "First, one of the top reasons why Fortnite is so popular is because the initial game is free" (Crouch 5). However, that means that the game is more accessible and becomes more of a distraction with more kids/ieens. According to the author Though many will argue that Fortnite is not the root of the problem in households and classrooms, many parents and teachers disagree, and they are seeing this game become a huge distraction and addiction in and out of the classroom" (Crouch 9). We need to find a way to stop this being such a distraction. In conclusion, although Fortnite is an amusing game that kids can play with friends and after school, we need to understand that kids need to stop making it such a distraction because of not finishing their work, and it is also affecting their mental health, and it desensitizes kids. Teachers in school are noticing that kids in school are only talking about the game Fortnite and it's distracting them from doing work. Also since kids are playing the game way too much it could affect their health and it mostly affects their brian permanently because their brian is not fully developed. Fortnite can be good because it's free but it causes too much distraction and kids will not get work done in school. Fortnite can be fun but too much can be bad.​
