According to new research, VIDEO games help kids with ADHD. Researchers made a study last week showing the possitive effects in this non medical way to combat ADHD. "The University of Sydney wants to use video games with built-in biofeedback controls as a part of non-medical treatment."

Scientists from the university of sydney are looking for parents with children, both with ADHD and without to be apart of this research.

"Basically, the video game monitors heart rate and brainwave patterns to monitor how much concentration a child can gather while focusing on a video game. If a child’s brainwaves and heart rate drop below a certain level, indicating lack of concentration and focus, the child will lose control of the video game."
