I know this person, he is not old, he is not handicapped, his sons need their dads attention when he his home more than you need his questions and answers, his lawn hasn't been mowed in weeks. HE IS AN ADDICT!

He has many friends, a good job, he doesn't need a fantasy nonsupport group, his family needs him.

I live alone and whatever time I spend here harms no one. I do agree with you that this person is addicted to computer, he must have an addictive personality because a normal person can ask or answer a few questions and go about the buisness they need to take care, of because they know it will always be here when they come back.
Also I agree that children need their parents more now than they ever have and this man would be wise to dump the computer and respond to the needs of his child.
Computer friends will come and go but your child is your life and should be your first interest.

If the question is a gaggle of rambling nonsense or incoherent jibberish the only element you're able to do is genuine the spelling. by ways, i presumed proper grammar became right into a element white human beings loved. I could brush up on my stereotypes.

Maybe he is single and doesn't have a family to tend to. Maybe this is a fun site that he enjoys visiting
My children are 37 & 38, I hardly call this child neglect! One is an eye doctor, we are SENIORS! Our children are grown!
We finally can do something that we enjoy, many of us are single!!!

Would child neglect hold up in a court of law if he is home and not causing any harm to the children? Alot of parents allow their children to spend their evenings in their bedrooms with their computers and video games, so what is the difference?And, who are you to judge? If you are so worried about his children, why don't you step up to the plate and do something with them? Or, better yet, start out by asking HIM a question on here and see what his answer would be. It is his family and his life, so I would say mind your own business. And, leave Gladys alone!!

You may want to talk to him yourself if you really feel his family is at risk. If you don't live with him, are you sure that he is really spending that much time on the computer?
Also, please treat those that respond to your question with respect. Calling people weird, a nut case, and accusing them of condoning child neglect is not appropriate. Someone of your age should know better. Nobody knew about the supposed "child neglect" from your initial question (it was the additional info that you added that provided that). Shame on you . . . apologies are in order here.

I asked awhile back, in another section, if there is such a thing as computer addiction. A therapist answered and said "yes, there is".
I do not have a lot of obligations but I spend far to much time on the computer. At times I regret having a computer. I was busier and happier without one.

The same could be said to all of us who answered your question and of you too for asking the question in the first place. We come on here at various times of the day, afternoon, evening and night time....sometimes until 3am lol. We're not hurting anyone or ourselves and we enjoy the community that are here on the Senior section. At least by having friends on here there is no possibility of anyone asking for "a cup of sugar" or anything else or being used as a free babysitting service as we have had done to us in the "real" world. xx

After reading your questions and the several other things that you added on.....I have a feeling that regardless of what I say, unless I totally agree with you, that you won't like what I say so
I will anyway.....I say mind your own business unless it is your son that you're talking about. This man may indeed be very depressed and using this as an escape mechanism. My older son went through this a few years ago. We finally convinced him to seek help and he is now a very successful
businessman. I wonder why you are so bitter?
Please don't hit the bottle so heavy before you come on here next time. You sound pretty scary to me. Now please slither on back to your cave until you get a grip...........

I suspect that you may be asking this of yourself. I say that because since joining last Thursday, you've already responded to 80 questions and asked 9 questions. If so, maybe you should ask your family if it is interfering with your family life. Is it interrupting other parts of your life . . . work, friends, church, etc.? I think it is up to each person to find their own personal balance between other obligations (whatever they may be) and the amount of time spent on YA and the computer in general.
Edit: My dear Stardoes, I would not intentionally answer your question, or anyone else's, with an insult or an attack on them. Sometimes, people ask questions that are really about themselves in very vague terms and I thought you were doing that. You had a very valid question, after I read your additional comments. My answer would have been much different if I saw them when I responded to you. But, you have many good answers here and I hope you are able to make things right with your friend. May you have a wonderful holiday season. Blessings, Gladys (aka "nut case" :) ).

Feeling a little Persnickety?
It seems to be far to easy for folks to pass Judgment on others without walking in their shoes. So... go mow the grass like a good neighbor. Take over a plate of cookies and talk to this person, be nice!
As My Grandmother would say!
If you can't say anything nice then keep your mouth shut!
