KUNMING—Many Chinese teenagers are interested in“falling in love”and“getting married”. In an unreal world,as more on-line games offer such experience to them whose minds are full of romance(浪漫).Parents and schools worried that such on-line games would cause the prematurity(早熟)of children and affect their studies.
A mother surnamed Xiong has a 14-year-old son,who often stayed all night in the Internet café playing games recently.One day,the son came home with joy and told his mother he had got some million yuan in a game and had got a wife and a son.
“I was very surprised to find him interested so much in the grown-up’s activities,”the mother said,adding that the son spent all his pocket money in the Internet cafe and even skipped classes(逃课).
It is reported that a similar story happened to a high school boy named Yan,who married a girl named Xiao Fei in an on-line game called“Crazy tanks”.In the game,the“couple”took wedding photos, had a sweet honeymoon and had a child.“We love each other so much that we can’t live without the other.”said the boy.
Finally he decided to find Xiao Fei in real life.“I must meet her in real life and will love her.I’m planning it now,”he said with hope in his eyes.“Many on-line games allow players to marry and live together,and it is bad for children,”Yan’s teacher said.
