It's now considered a mental health disorder by the World Health Organization (WHO).

My mother saw this on the news and immediately started pointing fingers at me. I wish the broadcaster had mentioned that this only impacts a small amount of people who game like it does on the WHO website. Other than the risk of parents getting worried for nothing I think this could be beneficial for individuals who do have this problem.

What is your opinion on this?
