✳️INTERNET✳️
In today‘s world the use of internet has become indispensable. From school children to professionals everyone turns to the internet for information, social networking or entertainment.
The growing influence of internet, especially on school children, has both positive and negative aspects.
The advantages mainly include access to information. Children get the required help from internet for completing their school projects and often their home tasks. Different child friendly websites cater to the kids. They provide much needed information on various subjects like astronomy, geography, science and others. They contain updated facts on these topics which are often unavailable in the books. Graphical presentations, colourful images attract them and through interactive games, these websites also entertain them. Social networking websites also enable the children to interact with friends and relatives staying away in distant places.
These advantages also happen to be the negative aspects of the internet. This is because of the case with which all kinds of information is available to a child. Similarly, with the same case he or she might access information or websites which are not meant for them. Again, social networking sites give them the opportunity to be in touch with friends who are away from them. However, through such networking sites a child may develop friendship with those whom he or she does not know in person and often fall prey to child abusers. Apart from these, a child may become so engrossed in the virtual world of the internet that he or she might ignore real friends and relations. His or her education also suffers.
Children often turn to the internet as a source of entertainment. They play games most of which involve violence which leaves serious psychological impact on the child, often making him insensitive to the suffering of others.
Thus, we can see that the internet has both positive and negative influence on the children. To increase the positive impact and minimise the negative effect, parents can play an active role. They should keep a check on the websites visited by the child during his or her internet sessions. Parents should have a good bonding with the child so that he or she does not hesitate to ask for parents’ help if one falls a victim to cyber bullies. The child should be made to realise that the world of internet is a virtual one. Internet is necessary as a source of information and communication but it cannot be a substitute for real life, real relations and real friendship.
