Children Do not Need Smartphone
Nowadays we have met a lot of middle class people and children can use the phone because of its cheap price and internet access guarantee that can be in, even 2 years old child of 3 years already know Smartphone. Especially for children, nowadays very many children who are adept and indeed allowed by their parents to bring the phone.
Children are given permission to carry a cell phone is indeed an important thing especially because of parents' concerns to their children when picking up school or they are playing. But it can be detrimental, the proof that children who already use the phone will be bad for health, morale and even education. Unfortunately, there are many parents who do not understand about the dangers of mobile phones for the health of children especially in education in the future.
If we as parents can observe the negative impact on the use of Smartphone this is of course we would be more worried about our children's education if equipped with a mobile phone than not provided. Children who have the greatest risk are children under 8 years of age not just education but parents need to understand that children are still in a period of growth because if growth is not normal, it will impact on the next growth. If this is not really paid attention to the parents then what will happen is not happiness or intelligence that will be obtained by the child, but is the suffering and education of course the family will also feel it.
There are some children abusing the gadget to cheat on repetition. Play games when teachers explain lessons and more. If it is still allowed, then the generation that we expect will be more trust with the smartphone than the teacher or parents.
One of the responsibilities of children is learning and schooling, but if the child's parents are too freedom to use his gadget then he tends to ignore this obligation. These conditions can make a child's achievements so decreased even no achievements.
Gadgets or smartphones have become a part of student life, so the presence smartphone causes both positive and negative impacts. The positive impact of smartphone is simplify the search for information and communication, and also, can make students not stutter the technology. As for the negative impact, that is disturbing student learning, bad consequence especially behavior, health, and attitude of student, and will lead to waste. For the parents it is necessary restrictions and directions from parents in using smartphone.
smartphone so do not pay attention to the things that are around, for example there are people invite chat but because engrossed with the gadget to not pay attention to the person who was talking. Children will be more comfortable or longer in front of smartphone than textbooks. Meanwhile, adolescents tend not to be able to control themselves due to the socialization that occurs not directly, there are not a few conflicts that occur and no
I think that younger children should not use smart phones, because of several reasons; smart phones will distract them from their studies; they will become addictive to the games they play on phone; there are also some advantages, such as using the internet on smart phone for studies, however, children rarely do that; therefore they should not be allowed to use smart phone up to a certain age.
Good post. Follow me. So I upvote you always
Hi, I will write down a few advantages and Disadvantages of children using cell phones.
Advantages:
Many cell phones allow access to the Internet, which can help a child obtain answers to questions very quickly and easily. This can help with studies as well as other simple daily questions like daily weather or finding directions to go someplace new.
Some cell phones have tracking devices in which a parent or guardian can track where their child is to ensure that they are safe and where they are supposed to be at any moment.
Cell phones allow parents and children to stay in touch. If a child needs to stay after school and needs a ride, they are able to call their parents and let them know by simply using their cell phone. This is especially important because pay phones are become more and more rare. Cell phones can be important in emergency situations as well when a parent needs to quickly get in touch with their child or vice versa.
Cell phones can help teach children responsibility. Parents can set guidelines for their children such as staying within a certain minute or text message range. Children are also responsible for their individual cell phone and parents can set rules about misplacing it or breaking it.
Cell phones can be a learning tool for children as they can learn a new form of technology as well as explore the Internet if the phone has the capability to do so.
Parents can set guidelines for their children on when they are able to use their cell phones. This can help teach them discipline, time management, and also allow them to learn to enjoy their time without using their cell phone.
Older children who can drive will be able to have a phone on hand in case they face any type of emergency situation on the road.
Disadvantages:
Cheating with cell phones has become a huge issue in many schools. Students can text answers under their desks during tests. Since many phones are now Internet compatible, children can sometimes even use a search engine on their phone to find answers to test questions. If the child is caught cheating they can face serious consequences from the school.
Cell phones are not cheap. If a child goes over the limitations on a plan, the cost can increase rapidly. Prepaid phones can limit overall payments, but the cost per minute may end up being more expensive depending on amount of usage.
Cell phones can be very distracting from more important events in a child’s life such as studying, doing homework, or even crossing the street. Studies have shown that children are more likely to be hit by a car if they are talking or texting on a cell phone while crossing the street. Since cell phones can connect children to their friends and the Internet, they can take away from study or homework time.
Older children who can drive may be tempted to call or text while driving which can severely increase their risk of a car accident.
Sexting, sending sexual messages or pictures to another person’s cell phone, is also an issue for parents to consider before purchasing a cell phone for their child. If a child does not have any blocked numbers on their device they can receive message which may include sexual explicit messages from anyone who has their number and chooses to send them the message or picture.
Children can also receive calls from anyone who has their number unless there are specific blocks on their phone. Parents have no way of knowing who is saying what to their child.
