Not being involved in community social activities or sports and spending excess time playing video games can increase the risk of mental health issues. Additionally, the child's single mother working full time and going to school puts additional stress and pressure on both the child and the mother, which can also increase the risk of mental health issues. The other options do not provide any indication of increased risk for mental health issues.
