To game or not to game? Maybe that’s not a question in your house – gaming seems to be part of every child’s life. But some of us adults are just catching up, and if you have never gamed and may have heard some stories about gaming that create fear in you, it can feel daunting for your child to be one step ahead. We spoke to Andy Robertson, author of Taming Gaming, about how gaming can be a healthy part of family life and the way it can help kids grow spiritually.
