A Chinese Dad has come up with a unique way of persuading his game-addicted son to turn engage with the real world: hiring gaming pros to destroy his morale by hunting him down online.
The frustrated father had apparently seen his 23-year-old offspring become obsessed with online games to the point that he had no interest in trying to find a job, according to Chinese media reports picked up by Livedoor and RocketNews24.
The pallid youth, who had become rather adept at his chosen profession of sitting at home playing war games, then discovered something strange was happening every time he logged on – he’d be taken out immediately by another player.
After this happened several times the boy apparently contacted his assailant in-game to ask what was going on.
Only then was the Jerry Springer-style pay-off revealed to him – it was his own father that had hired a series of hit men to destroy the boy’s love of gaming.
The two did in the end reconcile their differences in the real world, although it remains to be seen whether the Dad’s extreme course of action had the desired effect.

"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."- Samuel Adams
