Using a computer every day can have more negative than positive effects in young children. DO you agree or disagree?

These days , computers become one of the most popular technological gadgets among people ,especially in studies.
Although
I think that using
this
development usually can have some obvious merits to pupils , I believe that the disadvantage of
this
device can outweigh its advantage . On the one hand , it is often argued that computers can have some benefits to children .
Firstly
,
this
device may help young students to learn meaningful skills effortlessly and cheaply .
For example
, there are multiples useful online courses free on the internet which can help pupils develop their knowledge in different fields .
Secondly
,
this
development remains a useful way to entertain and have some fun and joy cheaply .
For instance
, children can enjoy playing video games or watching movies on their laptops easily and without paying money .
On the other hand
, there are several adverse effects of
this
technology on youngers if they use it on a daily basis .
First
of all , if youngsters spend a significant amount of time on screens every day , they will probably have serious health problems ,
such
as poor eyesight and obesity .
Secondly
, children have to develop their interpersonal skills by communicating with other youngers .
However
, spending an enormous time in front of a laptop may tend youngsters to be introverted persons and isolated from others which can not help them to develop their relational skills . In conclusion, despite that computers may have some obvious advantages to pupils . I strongly believe that it is a negative development and the drawbacks that it bring exceed its benefits .
