I read in the paper today(not today's paper but oh well) that there has been a study and it finds that Gameboys are better sedatives then sedatives for kids who have to have surgery. There was a lady working in a hospital and she noticed that kids who played Gameboys before surgery were calmer then kids who just had their parents or who had sedatives. So she did a study and gave some kids sedatives, other Gameboys, and other had just their parents to help them cope. The kids with sedatives were a little agitated/uneasy, the kids with their parents were almost twice as agitated/uneasy and the kids with Gameboys weren't agitated/uneasy at all. I thought that was interesting. But really any numbskull could have told you that. All hail the soothing powers of the Gameboy!
