We all are using technology without realising the risks associated with it. We all are obsessed with ourselves. Technology keep us engaged with none but with ourselves.
That’s why we are oblivious to child development and growth process. We all are lucky enough that we had upbringing without technology.
Why I have raised this question today ? I realised what today’s kids are missing. They are not using technology but technology is using them since kids are getting engaged before time. Technology is not a bad thing but overuse or before use is hazardous to their development.
Child experts agree that children under 2 should not watch any TV, video or any passive entertainment. Instead of letting your baby watch TV, let him play and entertain himself. Playing is an activity where your baby can derive a lot of developmental benefits.
Kids are slower to start a task they see on screen vs. live. Experts recommends no TV before age 2 — and no more than 2 hours after.
Because infants have a difficult time differentiating between sounds, TV background noise is particularly detrimental to language development.
If you do let your toddler watch television, break it up into 15 to 20 minute slots at a time. More than that and his little brain may go on autopilot.
Keep in mind that screen time includes TV, digital games, online viewing and computers, as well as interactive mobile devices like smartphones and tablets.
Limit your toddler’s total viewing time to a total of one hour a day. This is because toddlers need to be active for three hours a day to grow healthily. Physical play contributes better to your child’s mental and emotional development than watching television.
Having meal in front of TV is another trend we all are following which is really the worst thing….
All have these side-effects. 1. overeating and obesity. 2. Distraction 3. Unhealthy eating habits 4. Lower metabolism 5. Indigestion 6. When mind doing two things at a time, it is unable to enjoy either of them properly 7. No family interaction – less time for family bonding in this busy time and age.
Your child also needs the chance to spend time with you and other children, so he can learn how to talk to and relate to people. All these opportunities are limited while watching television.
Don’t burdern your kids with technology.Once they hooked up you won’t be able to get them back.Use technology whenever you are in need but don’t make it part of your kid’s life, else one day your kid will have faith more in technology than you. Just try and give your child same childhood as you ever had atleast once a week or month…A tech free childhood !!!!!
