Surely you are one of those parents who have already realized that your children prefer to watch videos of Youtubers playing video games instead of playing those video games themselves. Is it so? You are not the only one. Kids today spend an enormous amount of time watching so-called 'Let's Play' videos. Those in which another person narrates the game with a large dose of humor and many jokes sprinkled with personal observations.

The question is, why do our children do this? In principle, seeing another person playing a video game instead of doing it yourself does not make much sense. However, if you think about it, this phenomenon is not very different from watching someone play football, tennis, poker, or any other professional sport on television or download snack video. Perhaps we are already aware of this, and that is the main reason for concern for us parents, a generation that as adults know that they spent many hours in front of the television in their childhood and see the excessive consumption of time that our children spend watching these videos. . But why do they like them so much?
