Williamsport, PA (PRWEB) May 18, 2006 -- Ask any parent if they feel their kids spend too much time playing video games and you'll get a resounding "Yes".
"Parents have good reason to be concerned", says Nick Gabriel, Family Counselor of more than 15 years and founder of TheFishingHallOfFame.com. Gabriel believes that many video games create a disconnect between parents and their kids. "Most games are solitary activities and often encourage kids to isolate", Gabriel stated.
Because of this isolation, Gabriel believes that kids from the "video game generation" are lonely, disconnected, less patient, more irritable and increasingly selfish.
"Contrary to popular belief", Gabriel states, "kids want their parents to be involved with their lives. They really don't want or need the latest video game. What they really want is more time with Mom and Dad."
To encourage parents and kids to spend more time together and to make that time both memorable and fun, Gabriel founded The Fishing Hall of Fame.com.
According to Gabriel, "The Fishing Hall of Fame engages the family in the same, fun activity (fishing). Engaging in the same fun activity is the only way for parents to connect with and stay connected with their kids. Being a member of the Fishing Hall of Fame.com gives your child a sense of accomplishment and belonging that helps build their confidence."
"Finally, few families can experience an afternoon of fishing without laughing, having fun and creating lasting family memories", Gabriel said.
