These days, children have easy access to home computers, tablets, and smartphones and many spend a large part of free time using these devices. Dicuss the advantages and disadvantages of this situation and give your own opinion.

It is true that the growth of spending time with

children

on computers and technological

devices

had brought a lot of drawbacks to both their health and acceptable behaviour. While there are some essential positive consequences of their usage, I would argue that these are outweighed by the disadvantages. On the one hand, there are some aspects of using

computer

devices

in leisure time. Principally, accessing computers for educational purposes raises cause for efficiency. In terms of education in early childhood, teaching by computers and other

devices

can support the future tech career of

children

.

For instance

, there is more opportunity of becoming successful in the technological industry for people who have gained STEM knowledge,

computer

science and some beneficial hard skills.

In addition

, social media platforms which are

computer

-based technology provide the possibility to actively communicate with each other to them. It assists their communication skills.

On the other hand

, despite

such

benefits, these are not acceptable enough and must be considered against the disadvantage of

children

's

computer

usage.

To begin

with, technological advancements can be harmful to human health.

For example

, nowadays there is increasing in obesity and mental aberrations which are caused by the over-using of screens among the young generation.

Moreover

,

computer

games affect their behaviour negatively. According to psychological research,

children

who play violent games lose their passion and become easy to get depressed. To summarize, I believe that the disadvantages of young people spending their spare time using smart

devices

are greater than the advantages. After a thorough analysis of

this

subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the usage of technology will always be greater than the positive effects.
