When I was in the 6th Grade, our music teacher yelled at us for playing video games..

This is kinda random but it's a topic we all shoud talk about. When I was growing up, I was always told video games were bad for you and they do harm for your brain. This one time when I was in the 6th Grade, my class took Violin lessons. The guy who taught us was an absolute cranky old man! After he tried teaching us to do this one song, he got fed up and asked us "how many of you kids play video games?!" and all the guys and 1  girl raised their hand. And he says "Isn't funny how the people who play video games are the most awful learners in my class!? It's not good for you. Those things just rots your brains. I have kids of my own who plays those damn games for 6 hours and it makes me want to smash their tv's. Don't play video games!" and from that point on until I was in my teens I always thought Video Games was bad for me. As of right now I believe Video Games are good for our brains because we use them and it's like training them. Science proves Video Games are actually good and provide healthy benefits for our heads. I forgot who that Violin teacher was, but I know exactly how he looks like.  I wish someday I run into him again and I'll tell him how wrong he was and now I'm going into univeristy and I still been playing games ever since he taught me in that class. This is a statement/story I wanted to share.  It would be nice to read similar stories of yours!
