7,500 adult respondents were a part of an international survey, with 31% indicating they had children less than 18 years of age playing casual games at home. Parents and grandparents alike play these games with the kids in their homes, and they cite many instances of benefits from the games. From improved hand-eye coordination, memory strengthening and confidence building to stress relief, families find great benefit in playing video games. Moreover, the adult’s surveyed felt playing games with their children fostered a stronger relationship within the family. This sounds a bit contrary to the propaganda of games being fairly worthless and mind sucking forms of entertainment.
