    Summary: 
    "Nine out of ten children and adolescents play video games, and some degree of gaming is normal. But excessive playing can negatively impact schoolwork, kids' social lives, and even their health. [This book] is for parents concerned about the role of gaming in their children's lives. In this informative and readable book, Dr. Nancy Petry sheds light on what constitutes problematic video gaming and what does not, how to determine whether a young person may be 'addicted' to gaming or developing problems with it, and when to seek professional help. Petry also provides reader-friendly explanations of the latest science behind how gaming addiction impacts children, adolescents, and families; she also explores the question of whether gaming may have positive effects in certain situations. Finally, Dr. Petry offers three simple, easy-to-implement steps parents can take to reduce and reverse the harmful effects of gaming. Pause and Reset also provides exercises and worksheets to support parents' efforts to help their kids."--Back cover.
