Technology today is a sight you often see. People on a train all plunged in their gadgets, a sweet couple on a date actively texting with friends or collegues, a toddler holding a tablet, an infant with an iphone in her mouth … What’s new? At one point, parents have great regard over gadgets: they see them as an entertaining and educational tool. But later on, it becomes an alarming sight. Apparently, a research from Common Sense Media revealed that the number of children aged below eight year old 8 using gadgets (such as smartphones and tablets) have increased in just two latest years. From 38% in 2015, it has gone up to 72% in 2017. Also, the survey further showed the increase of toddlers’ gadget exposure from 10% to 30%. With this, the American Academy of Pediatrics discourages parents from technology use for children under the age of two saying that it changes the nature of childhood.
Toddlers are likely to respond better to video screens that initiates interaction, thus the pacifying effect of tablets to children. These digital gadgets are changing the entire childhood lifestyle, even replacing TVs, toys, playgrounds, painting and storybooks. “My one-year-old is now walking up to the aquarium and swiping it because she thinks it is a tablet”, says a mother. Gadgets are becoming a part of childhood in ways that were almost unimaginable before. Despite numerous studies revealing the negative effects of modern gadgets on children, there are still positive things about the rise of technology. Kids who interact with the screen a reasonable time a day learn faster and make fewer mistakes. This way we help them get a little more information. Technology should be encouraged and yet moderated. It is a new generation and kids should get the right amount of knowledge. However, parents must perform their responsibility of protecting their child. While there is still time, introduce a new habit of playing outdoors and interesting games with peers. Visit playgrounds, sportgrounds and libraries and get educational toys for your child’s development.
