More and more parents are allowing their children to play on computers and tablets as they think that children should learn technology skills. Do the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?

Advancements in

technology

have produced comfort in our lives. In order to make their children

technology

oriented and skilled more and more parents are allowing children to play on modern gadgets

such

as computers and tablets. The advantages of

such

attitude are equal to its disadvantages. The enhancement in

technology

has a huge impact on our daily life as it has become a necessary part. To cope up with modern society learning about the new technological innovation is mandatory.

This

is the reason parents allow their children to use updated gadgets. As an illustration, mobile phones are now equipped with various apps like Google maps. To find a way, people no more use those traditional maps.

As a result

orientation about modern innovations is crucial to do even daily tasks.

Therefore

, it is crucial for parents to allow their children to use computers or other devices to adjust in

this

contemporary era.

Although

the knowledge and skills regarding technologically advanced devices are necessary, their demerits are

also

undeniable. In order to learn

technology

skills, children are deterred to focus on their main goals. To illustrate, my niece allocated most of her time to learn about computers after permission of my sister. Because she had to spend plenty of time on learning about computers, she could not focus on her studies and eventually she lost interest in her studies leading to poor academic progress.

Hence

, the demerits of orienting children to technologically advanced devices are paid off in terms of a negative impact on studies and it should be considered as a high alert. To conclude, children are now permitted to play on computers and tablets as parents think that children should learn about

technology

and become skilled in

such

sector. The benefits of

this

development are equivocal to its demerits.
