Children with internet addiction to be cured in Britain
In the Great Britain was opened the first hospital for the children with cellular phones, computer games and internet addiction.
Help will be offered through intensive in-patient day care or group therapy to children as young as 12 although the service is aimed at 15 to 17 year olds amid increasing concern about the amount of time children are spending in front of a screen, the Big Pond news says.
A hospital spokeswoman says research shows adults who spend too much time online suffer physically and mentally while young people become agitated and have difficulty concentrating, and ultimately could become depressed, the source informs.
