Example

I know my parents think I spend too much time playing video games, but it’s something I really love. Here’s why gaming is important to me and why they shouldn’t be worried.

 

Types of Games I Play: I play different games, from strategy games like "Civilization VI" to adventure games like "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild." I also enjoy playing team-based games like "Fortnite" and "Overwatch" where I can play with friends.

Time Spent Gaming: I usually spend about 2-3 hours a day gaming, mostly in the evenings after I’ve finished my homework. On weekends I play a bit more because I have more time.

Why I Enjoy Gaming: Gaming is my way to relax. It helps me escape from daily stress and stimulates my mind. I love the challenges and the feeling I get when I complete a difficult level or win a match. It’s also a social activity; I chat and play with friends, which helps me stay connected with them.

Why My Parents Shouldn’t Be Concerned: I understand their concern about screen time, but I believe I balance my gaming with other things I have to do. I complete my homework on time and participate in family activities. I believe that as long as I manage my time well, my parents shouldn’t worry too much about my gaming habits.
