Much of the risks in esports and online gaming come from anonymous, unsupervised environments where youth can be especially vulnerable.
- Interactions with bad actors and communications with unverified adults
- Predatory risks and grooming
- Bullying and harassment
- Online toxicity and negativity
- Excessive screen time and imbalance with other activities
- Improper health and exercise habits
- Limited checks and balances
