Scott Langteau has this message for kids：Spend less time playing video games．

    It’s a message that many a morn and dad have tried to impress upon many a youngster(and some not-so-youngsters)who spend perhaps a bit too much time with game controllers in hand．

    But the 40-year-old Langteau isn’t a parent．He’s experienced at video games--one who played producer on three‘‘Medal of Honor”games and co-founded his own game development compan.

    Langteau has just published a children’s book called“Sofa Boy”，which tells the story of a kid

 who spends too much time sitting on the couch with controller held in hand and the rather terrible consequences that follow．

    It’s a fairy tale picked straight from Langteau’s own experiences as a lad with a fondness for video games and his painful struggle against game addiction．But first，Langteau would like to make one thing clear：I’m not saying that you shouldn’t play video games．I think video games are great，I think they do great things for kids．Instead，Langteau says his book is all about a little something called“moderation(克制)”．

    “It’s about being well rounded，”he says．“Just like with anything else，we all need to make

 sure that there’S a variety in what we do．’’

    Video garners can be rather bad--tempered when it comes to accepting criticism about their favorite entertainment．And understandably 80．After all，most people who go around talking about the dangers of playing video games tend to be outsiders--people who don’t play video games and certainly don’t understand that they call be a valuable and healthy form of entertainment．
