Esport is not meant for kids. kids play games for fun.

We can list number of people earning money from playing games but the numer of kids ruining their life just because of getting addicted to the game world is in enormous amount.I bet all the gamers who are extensively playing can't make money.

Gaming companies have no control over the amount of time players spend on their games.
The only solution is that parents should talk to their child about the risk of video games and also limit the time their child plays video games.
