Some children spend hours every day on their smartphones. Why is this the case? Do you think this is a positive or negative development?
Nowadays, most pupils spend a lot of their
time
scrolling through social media or games on their gadgets
from time
to time
. It can be argued that our children
can gain many advantages from this
trend, however
, I believe there are a lot of drawbacks both mental and physical, for the following reasons.
There are some reasons why children
choose to spend their time
with mobile phones. Firstly
, the number of criminals is increasing significantly these days, this
factor makes parents worry if the children
play in the garden without any supervision from the adults. As a result
, parents give their kids gadgets
to force them to stay at home and feel safe from any bad effects such
as kidnapping. Secondly
, some children
believe that they can learn and gain some pros information, such
as educational apps and interactive learning tools. This
can attract children
’ skills to develop both their mental, also
ability to select the good between the bad effects of smartphones’ features. For example
, children
can learn how to build a system from a website. In some cases, children
also
get money from winning games online.
Besides
the good effects of phones, parents should consider the drawbacks of children
who spend almost every day with gadgets
. Furthermore
, killing time
in front of gadgets
can cause serious illnesses such
as poor posture and eye strain. This
would be very bad for kids for a long period and they might have surgery in the future. For another reason, always spending almost all of their time
in front of gadgets
could make children
feel isolated. They might feel cannot socialize with their friends because they do not know how to build connections with others. This
might happen because children
just know how to play with their gadgets
, not how to connect with other humans.
To sum up
, some communities believe that children
might be safe to stay at home rather than play in the garden with their friends because of the number of criminals that happen. However
, I believe that the drawbacks might become more dangerous in the future such
as eye strain or bad posture.Submitted by suryawatinovita on
