Yet they still play the game. Most people do like it, as evidenced by the huge support at live events. People just like to bitch about everything instead of playing the game

Teach them WoW or another MMORPG.

It'll make them interact with other people online under your guidance instead of getting chatted up while you're at work, help them understand that some people are assholes and not worth their time, make them do teamwork, and generally improve their memory, language skills, typing, and hand-to-eye coordination.

You can get the latter in RTS games of course, but the social aspect is horribly underdeveloped when compared to MMORPGs. Also I know children who like to skin animals, collect flowers, fish or tame cats in WoW, and there really isn't much fun and casual stuff you can do playing SC2 custom games. Though certainly some things do exist, but again, no social interaction there at all.

What the OP doesn't realize is that future generations will be playing SC3 and invading your SC2 threads telling you that it will be awesome when all the players switch, and that SC2 is dying. Or maybe that's what he hopes to prevent. (Won't work).

If a kid ever went to school and was like "guys lets play BW" and they showed it to them. Honestly they will be bullied. No doubt. Kids are ruthless nowadays.

Though on a serious note, young kids should not be playing the same games everyday. Need to mix it up and let them explore activites. Video games are incredibly physically passive and their brain should not be thinking about the next queen inject but why things in life are a certain way. Cant stress how bad screen based media is while growing up. And people need to understand that communication over the internet is completely different to real life.

ShadowQueen has the right idea by encouraging children to say "gg" and stuff. It helps change the general perception of video games and kids will grow older being nerds who can actually talk to people (not all nerds are like that, just some). Even getting kids excited about one tournament is a great way to get them excited about esports. So every MLG they can get all excited and tell there friends to come over and watch. If you start doing them all, every weekend will be gone.

Ive been doing a pretty big project on children and how screen based media influences their future. Honestly reccomend doing some reading on it. Change your perspective on how children should interact with technology.
