Some children spent hours every day on their smartphones. Why is this the case? Do you think this is a positive or negative development?

#children #hours #smartphones #case #development
Compared with the past, the methods of life have dramatically changed all over the world. These days, some children
use
 smartphones. In my opinion, the negative points of using a
smartphone
 outweigh of positive points.
Firstly
, the main disadvantage of using a
smartphone
 from childhood age is making you lonely which means children
use
 a tablet in various fields
such
 as playing games.
Therefore
, they don'
t
 need to ask someone else to come for playing games
cause
Correct word choice
because
show examples
 they don'
t
 learn how to connect with someone or how to ask or how to play games in a group.
Moreover
, when they grow up, they lack the ability to connect, and that's why they don'
t
 have a choice but to be lonely.
Secondly
, it makes you addicted to a mobile phone which has many negative points
such
 as not
also
 making you lazy but
also
 you don'
t
 have time to help yourself.
As a result
, it makes you an unhealthy person who doesn'
t
 care about yourself
such
 as going gym and hanging out with friends.
On the other hand
, some people believe that everything has changed and using technology are increased especially after Corona Virus.
For example
, you couldn'
t
 go to school in Corona Virus time. So, girls or boys who are students have no choice but to
use
 a
smartphone
. the population thinks it's good that children how to
use
 technology from childhood.
However
, we can teach some other skills
such
 as how to live or how to make a friend from a very young age and when they grow up and become a teenager, we can teach them how to
use
 the Internet and technology. In conclusion, using a
smartphone
 is an important issue that people face and governments have to pay attention to and manage it.
