Child and computer

In today's world, there is no escape from the development, stepping by the leaps and bounds of computer technology and technology, which surrounds us everywhere. Therefore, sooner or later, a child gets acquainted with a computer and learns to work on it, play, conquer the expanses of the world wide web. The natural question of sensible parents is how to control children in a computer in such a situation.

Influence of computer on child's health

For starters, I would like to give an example: snake venom is dangerous for life, but the right dose, can, on the contrary, heal from an ailment. So the time of the child's work at the computer should be strictly limited, "to have its own useful dosage." Excessive abuse of it can lead to impaired vision. Children who communicate a lot virtually and play online games can go to the loss of a sense of reality and to psycho-emotional disorders. But there is also a good side - if the child doses on the computer in special development games, then the level of thinking can become higher than it is supposed to be at a specific age, the intellect, memory, motor skills and small muscles of the fingers develop. With the help of the Internet, you can find a lot of useful information that helps the child to learn the school curriculum and prepare homework. But at the same time, the World Wide Web can carry the information threat through spam, pop-ups, etc., so modern parents install a program that controls and limits the flow of unnecessary information from the network. The harm to the computer for children , just like the benefit, depends on the responsibility of the parents, because the child only learns, knows life and independently distinguishes between good and bad, it is still quite difficult.

Given the modern structure of our society, in no case can you exclude a computer from the life of the child, but you need to retain control, limit time, and also ensure that the child does 10-minute breaks and rest.

What should I do if my child gets carried away by a computer?

In the event that children still go beyond the reasonable frame when working with a computer, the parents have a problem how to wean the child from the computer. This question arises because the artificial rejection of reality causes psychological dependence on the computer . Therefore, you can invent imaginary outages from the network, breakdown of the computer and at the same time to take spare time with interesting activities: going to the zoo, modeling, going to the pool or children's entertainment center, then putting time limits. But every child is different, and that which suits one can not be approached by a friend. It is necessary to monitor the reaction of children and choose alternative classes that they will like.
