Much has been written of late about the growing number of youngsters apparently hopelessly hooked on the web and/or vidgames. A clinic dealing specifically with 'screen addiction' recently opened in London. As is always the case when a new addiction is reported, there are doubters whose simple prescribed cure is a heavy dose of pull-yourself-together-man.
