Today's social
media
 are easier to access. Especially, a number of the young generation with no proper supervision are gradually absorbing negative content from the
internet
. In my opinion, the main factors that allow
children
 to approach
this
 kind of entertainment are nurture and environment. Notwithstanding, there are several suggestions to solve
this
 situation.
To begin
 with, social
media
 displayed on electronic devices is accessible and fast.
Therefore
, many
parents
use
 social
media
 as a tool to distract their offspring's attention from them.
In other words
, they find
this
 type of entertainment offered them low-effort parenting.
Consequently
,
children
 misunderstand that they have an unconditional allowance to explore interesting content in front of them. On top of that,
children
 sometimes stay with their electronic devices alone, it is difficult for
parents
 to know whether their kids are watching social
media
 suitable for their age.
Secondly
,
children
 probably live in social which everybody is addicted to smartphones. How could young babies start having some interaction unless those people stop playing phones and give them attention? In the end,
children
 will adapt themselves to blend in the way people around them do which is possessing a gadget and activating it all day long.
Nonetheless
,
this
 circumstance can be solved by emphasizing
parents
' effort.
Firstly
,
parents
 should supervise their offspring's
use
 of gadgets habits properly.
For example
, youngsters might be constrained to accessing the
internet
;
for instance
, they can
use
internet
 time only two hours a day.
Secondly
, today's social application systems can identify the age of users in favour of filtering worthy content feeding.
Thus
,
this
 option is what modern
parents
 are looking for.
To conclude
, technological advancements nowadays play a key role in helping
children
 from
parents
' laziness and isolated society.
This
 is the reason why youngsters enable to
use
 the
internet
 so freely.
However
, I believe that
parents
 are obliged to pay attention to their beloved
children
 by limiting their social
media
 time and accession.
