children under the age of 15 shouldn’t be able to play video games that involve shooting

Hi my name is Aung Naing and I believe children under the age of 15 years old shouldn’t be able to play video games that involve shooting, not because kids shouldn’t play any video games, I just think that shooting games influence children to have the same actions as the video games.

My reason for talking about this is because shooting games give people a clear message that guns can lead to a bad problem. Playing shooting games like Fortnite, Call of Duty and other games is not a good idea for younger kids because they can learn bad words. 

Shooting Games like Fortnite can get kids addicted, which means they can lose focus with their learning while in school. They might be staying up late at night playing games to get better or to get a win, which will make them very tired. Another problem is that they are missing out on fresh air and exercise.

Kids can get more violent playing the game and won’t stop playing it is because these games are very addictive. If the game is taken off them they can retaliate violently towards their caregiver.

Playing violent games might be fun, but you never know what that fun could cause or teach you. Imagine waking up to a gun pointing at your head, it could be your brother or your sister because anyone can change with this sort of influence. 

A couple of weeks ago we were working on making our persuasive speech for the speech competition. My speech was about why children under the age of 15 years old shouldn’t be able to play video games that involve shooting. I wrote this because it is bad for younger kids to play, they can learn a lot of thing form older people. I did well saying my speech but I didn't do well to have the confidence to say it in a big group.
