Video games can be a haven from the world, and it's easy to imagine that they would appeal to children who struggle with social interaction.

Boys with autism spectrum disorders or with ADHD are both prone to problematic use of video games, according to a study.

The researchers asked the parents of boys ages 8 to 18 to report on their child's video game use, including hours of use and the types of games they play.

LMAO! So the ADHD advocates are finally starting their argument against the "How do they focus on their videos games if they have ADHD" argument. Bravo "independent study." Just keep shovin' those pills at our kids.
