Explanation:

Imagine where the world was at just ten years ago. We didn’t have tools like the Echo Dot to create shopping lists for us and certainly never imagined a platform like Facebook to be our main source of communication, even over texting. The world around is rapidly changing due to many recent technological advancements. Although technologies are designed to make life more convenient, if they’re being utilized by children, then it’s taking away from the raw social experiences that every kid should have.

Suddenly, technology has provoked hysteria among parents. Take for example films like The Little Prince and The Hunger Games. Although they take on a very exaggerated version technology versus humans, they reveal how technology can destroy childhood as we know it. We are subjecting our kids to a world where they suddenly have to compete with robots and obtain social interaction through Face Timing or via Facebook and Instagram accounts. Although this is already the reality, it means that we should work that much harder to balance our children with normal childhood activities such as eating dinner with the family at the table without any smartphones and going outside to shoot some hoops.

Physical activity is not only healthy for kids physically but mentally as well. We can’t restrict kids from going online altogether and experiencing the web for themselves, but we can certainly encourage a healthy balance in order avoid the following ways technology might actually be destroying childhood.

It’s actually a good thing for kids to be frequently bored. Don’t you remember being bored as a child and what you did with that boredom? You had long dialogues with yourself and played pretend doctor with your siblings. You went outside to collect insects and played hopscotch with your imaginary friends. If you were to suggest any of these activities to a child from this generation, they’d look at you like you were a lunatic. Then they’d kick and scream for an iPad so that they could catch up on poorly made Youtube videos that review the latest toys so that they can feel like they were playing without having to. Kids these days will never know the freedom of boredom.

hope it helps you
