I was recently asked a key question I'd not yet been asked at any of my Talks. I didn't have an exact answer but felt it was important to know and to be prepared if this were to come up again. I had to ask my son, a recovering gaming addict, this poignant question. And after hearing his reply, I was inspired to write the following blog. This topic relates to the expression "It's not a problem until it's a problem." And as Robert Downey Jr once said, "Its easy to stop an addiction, its making the decision to stop that is the hardest thing to do." Here's the link to my blog. I welcome you feedback. http://eyespyhealth.ca/why-i-f...ing-a-brothers-gift/
