EFFECT
OF TECHNOLOGY TOWARDS CHILDREN DEVELOPMENT
Introducing technology towards
children can give a good impact and also bad impact towards them. The good
impact is children can learn so many things through technology. For example, if
the parents give the children tablet or smart phones in order for them to learn
about alphabets or numbers, then it will give good impacts towards children.
This is because, learning through tablets or smart phones is the fun way of
learning things for children.
There are so many formats for
children to learn through tablets and smart phones. For example are videos,
applications such as learning games, and many more. However, this good impact
will only occur only if the parents know how to control their children
technology usage. If not, it will give drawbacks towards their children.
If the children are taught to use
the tablets and smart phones all the times, then the children will not
socialize with their peers. They will spend their time only playing with
tablets or smart phones. They will not go out and play with their friends. This
is very bad for children. This is because, as a parent, they need to allow,
teach, and give their children chances to experience and know the world around
them. Children learn from experience.
Also, if the parents give their
children tablets or smart phones to play at the restaurant or when eating,
their children will assume that it’s alright for them to play with their tablet
and smart phone when dining. Children learn from experience and from what they
saw. Same for parents. If the parent always playing with their tablets and
smart phones when dining, then the children will think that it is alright for
them to do so.
Furthermore, if the parents always
use the technology in order to keep their child at the certain place all the
time, then it might lead the child to not receive enough attention. For example
is a busy parent always give tablet or smart phone to their children and let
them play with it for the whole day. Then the child might not receive enough
care and attention from their parent.
As the conclusion, parents are the
one that shape their children. So, it is very important for parent to control
the usage of technology among children. This is because, if they use it well,
then it will give positive impact. However, if they use it wrongly, then it will
give out negative impact toward children.
