User ID: 80822021  China09/02/2021 11:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | China Restricts Minors to Three Hours of Online Gaming Per Week Quoting: Lily o' the Valley Sep 1, 2021 China Digital Times This week, China extended restrictions on minors’ screen time. New regulations issued by the National Press and Publication Administration will limit minors’ online gaming to only three hours per week: one hour from 8:00-9:00 p.m. on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The move is part of a broader campaign by the Chinese government to promote healthier lifestyles among youth, and to crack down on tech companies’ growing influence on society. Chris Buckley of The New York Times described the impetus for these new regulations: “Recently many parents have reported that game addiction among some youths and children is seriously harming their normal study, life and mental and physical health,” the administration said in an online question-and-answer explanation about the new rules. Parents, it said, had demanded “further restrictions and reductions in the time provided for minors by online gaming services.” The new rules also reflect the government’s intensifying push for companies to jettison what the Chinese Communist Party says are unhealthy influences, especially among teenagers and children. [link to chinadigitaltimes.net (secure)] This is an integral part of their aging population problem. With the average age rising, birth rate declining, increase in divorces, increase in single lifestyles, and a relatively low retirement age. These are the real consequences of the family planning policies, which they are desperately trying to overturn. The number of 'middle class men' in China who don't even leave their house, because their parents set up the equivalent of a trust for them. They need not work, and so they only seek to entertain themselves, playing games all day every day. China has the single highest computer game usage in the world. At 12.39 hours per week, they are almost double the US's 7.71 hours per week. With a huge population, it should not be difficult to understand this average is a bad index of internal issues. It has been suggested that under the age of 18, they reach almost 18 hours of gameplay per day. [link to www.statista.com (secure)] Empty Men offer Empty Words and Empty Hearts. |

This is proving difficult for many Chinese men, as the country has the worst male to female ratio in the world, largely due to China’s decades-long one child policy. “Out of China’s population of 1.4 billion, there are nearly 34 million more males than females — the equivalent of almost the entire population of California, or Poland, who will never find wives and only rarely have sex.“  |

User ID: 80825766 China09/03/2021 12:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Good luck dealing with the kids experiencing withdrawals... hahaha, that will be all of them. The games they play are more addictive than crack cocaine. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80825561 This should be a real doozie. One to watch. That's why they are having to program the phones to restrict access. It won't work well, btw. Parents cant stand up to their child's tantrums. I've seen kids here who play on the phone almost non-stop every day since they where five. Empty Men offer Empty Words and Empty Hearts. |

(OP) User ID: 80786824  United Kingdom09/05/2021 01:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thank you everybody for such thoughtful messages. This is a genuinely interesting topic, maybe a foretaste of the future here, as state and local governments increase lockdowns and other manifestations of covid responses. China definitely had demographic problems we don't have here. I am sorry I have had to be gone after posting this. *** Good deeds bring rewards, bad actions bring troubles.

Ordinary Chinese citizens hold the 'liberals' in contempt. The CCP seems to control society, the US left seems to destroy it. *** Good deeds bring rewards, bad actions bring troubles.
