Children

's smartphone
addiction
Use synonyms
is one of the controversial issues today.
This
Linking Words
addiction
Use synonyms
has some important causes
such
Linking Words
as the existence of amusing content, the spread of technology and wrong parental behaviour. From my point of view,
this
Linking Words
situation is totally detrimental for
children
Use synonyms
.
It is clear that
Linking Words
smartphones
Use synonyms
are part of our lives. Unfortunately, our
children
Use synonyms
have got
addiction
Use synonyms
to
smartphones
Use synonyms
. Because
children
Use synonyms
can reach easily phones.
Smartphones
Use synonyms
have so many amusing contents, games and enjoyable applications. So,
this
Linking Words
content draws their attention.
Children
Use synonyms
don't want to go outside or play real games with their friends. In the present, most friendships occur on the internet.
On the other hand
Linking Words
,
parents
Use synonyms
have got some wrong behaviour about their
children
Use synonyms
.
For instance
Linking Words
, when
children
Use synonyms
come home, they usually wrap their
smartphones
Use synonyms
and hang out on the internet.
However
Linking Words
, if
parents
Use synonyms
do not allow
this
Linking Words
addiction
Use synonyms
,
children
Use synonyms
cannot do anything.
Otherwise
Linking Words
, we can expect that, if
parents
Use synonyms
always
use
Use synonyms
mobile phones near their
children
Use synonyms
,
children
Use synonyms
will want to
use
Use synonyms
smartphones
Use synonyms
.
Parents
Use synonyms
must stop themselves. The second point to consider is that
this
Linking Words
addiction
Use synonyms
has so many negative effects.
Firstly
Linking Words
, when
children
Use synonyms
spend hours on their phones, they have some health issues and characteristic deficiencies. Many resources say that, the
children
Use synonyms
who
use
Use synonyms
the phone for a long time visual diseases are more common. Because
smartphones
Use synonyms
have so much blue light. Blue light influences badly
children

's eyes.
Moreover
Linking Words
, if
children
Use synonyms
spend their time on
smartphones
Use synonyms
, they cannot improve their characteristic features.
For instance
Linking Words
,
children

who
use

smartphones
Use synonyms
for the long term cannot establish real friendships.
To sum up
Linking Words
, as was stated above, smartphone
addiction
Use synonyms
in
children

is caused by the following factors
such
