Video games are very dangerous because if you get addicted, it is very hard to stop. If you start playing a lot, after some time it will become just something to win and not to have fun. You will start doing some bad things: 1st: spending a lot of money to buy the best and being in a bad financial situation. 2nd: get addicted and lose your friends, girl/boyfriend(s)  as you start being aggressive cause you’re angry because of the game. 3rd: wasting your time, as life is a gift that you have to take care of, doing things you like, that makes you happy. 4th: you will probably continue being addicted for the rest of your life and you will start having lots of problems like depression, be addicted to alcohol, drugs, commit suicide… so don’t be addicted to anything cuz all of it makes you insecure about yourself.

A big issue with this type of relationship, would be the desire to nurture relationships in which we have total control: I can project love, I can avoid rejection, etc. This becomes a big problem when excessive appeal develops as we have seen certain absurdities in social media.

We need to think that perhaps ‘we live in a world where no one looks at each other anymore, where people feel so lonely, that they start to relate to no human forms’.  We have examples beyond reborn babies: men who relate to dolls, people who treat artificial intelligence as their best friend, women who have Alexia as their confidant.

But according to this same psychologist, in some cases, reborn babies can be used to help in specific therapeutic processes such as prenatal anxiety, perinatal grief or in elderly people with Alzheimer’s.

Used with common sense and parsimony, these babies may even have an important function.
