2:45 am
but only 3% of them are affected by the disorder, leaving some experts to caution that the new classification may lead to a possible misdiagnosis of mental health conditions like depression, anxiety and stress. the international game developers association telling abc news, there are serious and troubling consequences to the w.h.o.'s creation of a gaming disorder. adding the science of common sense around how video games are played supports the conclusion that video games are not addictive. >> now this whole thing is kind of controversial, though. because some medical experts are questioning the decision to classify gaming as an addiction. they say this could open the floodgates and weaken the seriousness of addiction. if anybody who just wants to keep playing video games says oh, i'm just an addict. >> is it bad that i spent my entire vacation on a cruise in the middle of the mediterranean playing fortnite?

we're back now with a closer look at the immigration crisis at our southern border. of course with the political firestorm surrounding the issue, it's easy to forget how difficult and dangerous the journey can be. >> it's a side of the debate you don't often get to see. but two years ago matt gutman went to the border to get a feel of the long and winding migrant trail. >> reporter: so this is a bridge over the river. it's the river that separates mexico and guatemala. this is the legal way to do it if you have papers. and the bridge is the only official border crossing for miles. we're tracing the first and one of the most dangerous stretches
2:49 am
of the migrant trail, traveled mostly by central americans trying to escape the brutal gang violence back home. a few blocks from the bridge, we meet edwin and jose. they come from el salvador, the murder capital of the world. they're beginning their second attempt to reach the u.s. the uncertain road ahead is more appealing than the horrors they're leaving behind. he says the situation in el salvador is very bad. violence, poverty. there's nothing there. like most central americans fleeing their homeland, they will cross into mexico illegally. no passports among the treasured belongings in those tiny backpacks. jose wears his reason for flight on his back and his arms. he shows us the nickel-sized scars from a shotgun blast. he says thank god the gangs didn't kill me, because they tried. that's why we're the victims in this situation. they don't have any other options.
2:50 am
if i go home, i could die. crossing the river, edwin and jose both know that once in mexico their journey will become much more treacherous. edwin and jose disappear over the river bank and we rush through the legal crossing on that bridge to try and catch up with them, traveling north through immigration checkpoint after checkpoint. eventually reaching a nearby shelter, a church-run safe haven for road-weary migrants. like carlos, who fled el salvador with his wife and three small children. carlos tells us families in el salvador are affected the most. and his goal as a father is to keep his family safe. the shelter is crowded, but the father tells us less so than in years past, and no sign of edwin and jose. edsel is 22 and asked us not to show his face because even here
2:51 am
he fears retribution from the ms-13 gang. they bashed your elbow, took your money and your brand-new phone. his story is heartbreakingly common. according to the mexican government, three quarters of those who pass through this area will be assaulted. we continue looking for edwin and jose. that's the pair we lost back at the border. after two days they finally responded to our texts. a final text from jose. he and edwin are being deported. he and edwin will try the journey yet again. we stayed in touch with them. four making it in the u.s., the others sent back. and in many ways, they defy the odds. because after the prayers, i asked the priest how many he thought would make it. he says maybe 30%. probably less. for "nightline," i'm matt gutman, mexico. >> just a reminder that it is a
