Interesting article.

It makes some good points, but I think ultimately, it is the parents that are the deciding factor in whether or not a child who plays video games will succeed in school.  If a parent lets their son or daughter play for hours on end and ignore their schoolwork, then of course they will suffer.  You will see this same effect with any hobby that is practiced in excess.  I've known dozens of kids with strict parents who don't care what games their kids play as long as their schoolwork is attended to.  In any case, it is food for thought, and it is always good to look at both sides of an argument.
