Hi all. A friend of mine is doing research for an article lobbying against anti video game laws and he needs more information.

Specifically:

Do you feel video games have stripped you of a life skill? Yes/No. If yes, which of these life skills do you feel you've been stripped of: 

Communication

Self-esteem

Passion - drive or will to do something

Compassion - humanitarian for 'care'

Temperance - or "emotion regulation"

Athleticism

Intellectualism

Be candid folks, do not worry whether your answer will provide further ammunition one way or another.

Thank you for your time.
