Technological
advances are the result of the constant search to facilitate the life of man.
Nowadays, you can see that a vast majority of people have mobile devices, since
these have become an essential part of society because they help us to carry
out routine task. Therefore, we realize that technology can be used in
different ways. It only depends on people how to use it, which leads us to
ask... What are the effects of technology on children?
Each year,
new products are launched that offer novel features, and that dazzle users
creating a kind of consumerism in adults because of this phenomenon, easy
access is provided to children who are close to these devices. which leads to
children being hours and hours either on computers, smartphones or tablets.
We can also
say that parents forget to pay proper attention to children due to they spend
too much time at work. According to studies, it is proven that 60% of parents
do not supervise the use of their children's technology, and 75% of children
are allowed technology in their rooms without any kind of surveillance.
In the same
way, an excess in the digital world diminishes not only their abilities to
interact with other people, but also their capacity to establish new
relationships. As a result, the family relationship will be reduced at the same
time.
In
conclusion, we can say that technologies are very useful tools for the life of
the human being. In order to prevent that children being affected by this phenomenon;
the key is keeping an eye on the time of interaction with the technologies and
avoiding at all costs that these alter their routines. Technology is not the
substitute of other sources of entertainment, interaction or learning.
