  • Interesting back story incoming. My brother and I worked at one of the best restaurants (at the time) in Greensboro NC USA. My brother’s roommate (Mike), for several years (1989 - 1992 I believe), had only a high school education. After working a shift at the restaurant, he’d return home and shut himself in his room for hours (this was almost every day). My brother inquired out of curiosity and Mike showed my brother his computer set-up and the types of digital graphics he had been working on. Mike sent a 3 dimensional application to a digital graphics arts school (I believe in Raleigh NC) and was immediately accepted. After easily completing this program of study (Mike was highly gifted and driven), he was snatched up by the company that developed Myst. He went from barely scraping by to making a substantial amount of money in the field he dreamed to work in.


  • As far as the argument against the argument for your point, the logical argument was complete in the first paragraph:

    the academic community has failed to produce any negative relationship between video games and real life.
    

    I have not been able to find any evidence that would support the claims of talking heads, etc.

    My other son is ‘on the spectrum’ and is a joy with all of his uniqueness.
