Prince Harry may be the younger of the two royal brothers, but with his latest comments, he’s probably not making the youth happy.

At a YMCA event in West London this week, the Duke of Sussex said young people should stop playing the wildly popular video game Fortnite.

"That game shouldn't be allowed,” he said. “Where is the benefit of having it in your household? It's created to addict, an addiction to keep you in front of a computer for as long as possible. It's so irresponsible.”

Headlines were quick to characterize his comments as a call for a Fortnite “ban,” but Harry didn’t seem to want legal action. Speaking to a group of mental health experts, he just emphasized that parents should be more aware of what their teenagers’ favorite game could be doing to them.

“Parents have got their hands up,” he said. “They don’t know what to do about it.”

Studies have long linked increased social media activity to mental health problems in teens, and a growing number of young people seem to be anxious and depressed . Practicing psychologist Kate Roberts told Fox23 News that kids are actually coming in for treatment for Fortnite addiction.

"What happens is they start to crave it,” Roberts said. “If they play it for more than a couple hours, they get into this addictive mode. The dopamine in their brain starts to react to it, and then when they come off of it, they have a crash from the decrease in dopamine. Basically, that makes them angry, irritable, withdrawn.”

With 250 million registered users, Fortnite is one of the world’s most popular video games . The survival action game has millions of active users as well, with more than 10 million people playing it at once. Since there’s so much evidence available that all this screen time isn’t doing the younger generation any good, parents should check their kids’ Fortnite use, taking advice from Harry.

Considering his bachelor reputation, that’s something I’d never thought I'd say. But then again, he is getting ready to be a dad.
