Practicing sports or playing video games?
A couple of decades ago, it was usual to see a lot of children playing in the street with their friends; but nowadays, due to technological advance, although video games have existed since before, they have been spread and popularized. That’s when the dichotomy between sports or video games shows up.
Sports have always been one the most chosen hobbies by youth . They’re not just beneficial for our health, but they also help us interact with other people and, therefore, make our social skills improve.
However, although there are multiplayer video games too, people normally play them sitting, so they aren’t doing any physical activity meanwhile.
Nevertheless, if everybody has got more than one way to spend their spare time, why can’t both hobbies be combined?

sidenote - there are some video games that do combine some physical activity with video games (think of dance dance revolution ddr or wii games)
