  1. Ok. This news post is very misleading. The title makes the reader think that gaming is beneficial for those with AD*. Secondly, the editorial comment implies that all games are beneficial. The quote itself contradicts this immediately, telling the reader that a specific system does this.

    edit:

    and the word cures is completely innaccurate.
