Here’s a company that sells virtual items, like a new shirt or more powerful suit of armor for your video game avatar – virtual goods for real cash. They claim to have processed 50 million transactions in the past year. Do you think there is any correlation between time spent shopping for your avatar and the weight problems in kids? Wouldn’t you rather have that sweater for yourself, for real? Mother told me no good would come from sitting in front of the screen all day.
