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

Smartphones

have become a part of our life.

Children

are spending hours on their mobiles daily. It is because they are so addicted to it. I think it is a negative development because

children

’s eyesight is affected by using

smartphones

all the

time

.

To begin

with, the reason why

children

spend hours on their

smartphones

is because they are so much addicted to them. They prefer to spend

time

with their mobiles rather than their family because they can do whatever they want to do on their mobile phones like they can watch movies, listen to songs, talk with their friends and much more.

Children

love their

smartphones

.

For example

, my nephew spends most of his

time

on a smartphone because he wants to play games, watch cartoons, etc., and he is so much addicted to it. On the downside, I think it is a negative development because

smartphones

affect

children

’s physical and mental health.

Children

’s eyesight is so much affected by using

smartphones

. Nowadays,

children

do not take an interest in physical activities and

instead

of playing, they prefer to play on mobiles. It has affected their mental health

also

. For illustration, my brother uses a lot of mobile and his eyesight is affected by

this

. He spent all of his

time

on

smartphones

. In conclusion, parents should restrict the mobile use of

smartphones

for their

children

because they are becoming addicted to it and I think it is a negative development because it affects both the physical and mental health of

children

.
