Reflection on Meeting

 

 

 

Sunday 14^th October, 2012

Venue: W104

Time: 11:20

Chairman: Abdullah Ali

Secretary: Hasan Mubarak

Participant: Hamdan Mohamed, Abdulkareem

Problem: Video games effect on teenagers and kids

 

Abdullah Ali started the meeting with his group to find some solutions about video game effects on teenagers and kids, he started with an introduction and then he said the agenda for this problem which is:

a)      Behavior: disorder symptoms

b)      Bad effect on study performance

c)       Social problems

d)      The effect of playing violent games on children

For the first point Hasan mentioned that the parents should take the children to see a psychiatrist to let them see the bad effect of sitting a long time playing the video games. For the second point Hamdan said that the parents should keep in touch with the teachers and encourage their children to get high marks in the school. And for the third point Abdulkareem that the parents should communicate with their kids and take them every weekend for a trip to keep them away from video games. Finally for the last point Abdullah admonished the parents who should look after their children and keep them away from violent games or even stay with them when they play these games and don’t let them practice these games on others.

 

Recommendation:

       1) Seeing a psychiatrist is a good idea but our society thinks that anyone who goes and sees a psychiatrist is crazy and because of this it’s difficult for the children to accept this idea.

      2) Keeping the parents in touch with the teachers will help the parents very much with their children to know the academic achievement and will encourage the children to study more to get what they need.

     3) Going out on a trip will benefit the children and parents and the communication between them and thus will reduce the time of children sitting alone and spending their time playing video games.

     4) Violent games are harmful and parents should not allow their children to play them.

 

In the end the benefit that I had from this meeting is very valuable. I learnt how to do a meeting and how to share my suggestions with the others and how to convince the others and finally it was very interesting meeting and I hope that the teenagers and kids will take our solutions that keep them in a positive side.
