 fact, they are getting addicted to gadgets because they think that it is the only way of spending their time at home. A consistent routine can help children feel secure, and safe and provide them with an understanding of what is expected of them. It can include a set time for meals, sleep, study, and playtime. Establishing routines may require some flexibility and adjustment, but the benefits of doing so are worthwhile. Unfortunately, it has bad consequences related to the health of the children since standing for hours and hours staring at phones will affect badly to their eyesight. The medical term for the syndrome is called asthenopia, which means eye pain and eye fatigue.
