Is it Ok to play Angry Birds Games for My Son?
My son is 15 years old, recently I find he usually playing a game called" Angry Birds" after doing homework. Previous he almost never played games, so when I found he like the game, I'm very suprised. And I'm worried this will influence his study. But he told me the game gives him much pleasure and guarantee he will not addicted. But I'm still a little worried.

Yeah! It is OK if your son is playing Angry Birds for a limited time. A recent study says that games like Angry Birds make your kids more resilient and smart in their field. However, you can also suggest him some games to improve general knowledge like https://www.siliconflip.com/quiz/. Basically, a coin flipping game but allows the user to increase knowledge by granting points on right answer of GK questions.
Yes it is not an issue. Limited use of an electronic screen is safe. The game builds geometry knowledge. Increases eye hand coordination. It would be healthier for your son to go outside and walk, climb, run or pedal.
The thing with addiction is that the addicted person is generally in denial that they are addicted
ask your son not to play the game for a few days and it gets to an argument then that is an addiction as it means that the game is more important that your relationship
