The word addiction such as "shopping dependence" and "gambling addiction" is used in various places. However, since addiction refers to "obsessing something so that it has a marked effect on everyday life", it can not be said that it is "game dependence" because a child plays a game for several hours . Nonetheless, many parents often care that children grow older, "they do not study or help, and the time to devote to games is on the rise". TNW asserts that the tendency of children's game playing time to rise year by year, "Many children tend to dislike studies and help as they grow, so it's natural to get involved in games and other things." .

However, playing games is not necessarily bad. Andrew's Pushibirusuki to serve as an associate professor of psychology at the University of Oxford study in shows the "When you play one hour games per day happiness rises and falls happiness When you play more than three hours," that, the game It became clear that playing for a short time leads to a rise in happiness. However, many children do not try to stop the game in an hour, and may play for more than three hours.

TNW explains that "Three elements needed for human growth are involved". Mr. Edward Dessi, professor of psychology at Carnegie Mellon University and Mr. Richard Ryan, professor of psychology at Rochester University, said, "People have the ability to gain skill for growth, by themselves "Autonomy" which can freely work on what I did, and "relationship" that can feel the relationship with other people. "

However, TNW points out that "most of the children can not obtain these three factors from the real world", "Children will spend the longest in one day's life except for sleeping hours At school we are only teaching things, I am trying to get from the game I play at home, because I can not get the three elements "ability", "autonomy" and "relevance" necessary for humans. " Indeed, in well-designed games such as Fort Knight , "ability" obtained by honeing playing skills to achieve the goal, "autonomy" of trying various tactics to solve problems, with other players You can get 'relevance' by cooperative play and communication.

However, TNW asserts that "the three elements gained in the game do not reach the level demanded by humans," and "In any game, you achieve difficult goals in the real world, learn new skills We do not overcome the "ability" obtained by grinding, "autonomy" obtained by searching the world freely, "relevance" obtained through communication with real people. " For this reason, the company says the most effective way to stop the game is "to unleash the children to the real world, to communicate with various people, to solve puzzles," the best.

Of course, it is not a good way to unleash the children to the real world and make them act freely because of threats such as crime. Therefore, TNW is a practical way to allow children to acquire three elements of "ability", "autonomy" and "relevance" beyond what games can be obtained by games "parents play games that children play, I'd like to ask a game play coach. "

The fact that a child becomes a coach of a game means that "ability" to teach people, "autonomy" necessary to develop a method of how parents can improve their parents skill from the state of amateur to professional level , "Relationship" to communicate with people can be obtained at the same time. TNW says "It is expected that children can eventually reduce game play time, because children can get three elements by playing their parents' coach.

In addition, TNW explains that even if parents have told us that they usually say "Stop games and study," parents are saying this way also eliminates hostile relationships with children.
