Cure your Internet addiction - check into rehab

August 13, 2007

A trial boot camp has been set up in Beijing for kids to seek help for their Internet addiction with a view to help them reacquaint themselves with reality and improve their social skills. Instead of computer games, kids are required to play with toys and in some of the more severe cases doctors have had to resort to shock therapy to treat the little darlings. I probably spend around 10 hours a day online, but it pays the bills. Does that count as an addiction?
