[2]I also play computer games from time to time? and I even play tennis on my television screen in my living room?!
My parents are worried that I may become an “Internet addict?”.They think I'm playing computer games all the time? and I chat too much with online friends.According to? them, there is a danger? that I may not be able to tell whether these friends are real friends.

Actually, I do know I need to drag myself away from the online world sometimes, especially because real life can be just as interesting. [4]
