HIDDEN ENEMY @ HOMES 🥺

 

With the development of technology people invented different types of equipment. As a result smartphones provide so many benefits and inbuilt facilities for people. It helps to communicate with people easily. Other than that, with the help of an internet facility we can find details within a few seconds. So without any argument we can say that smartphones are a multipurpose equipment for the people who are trying to fight with their busy schedule. But when we talk about the disadvantages of using smartphones, it causes not only for adults but also for the children. Nowadays providing a smartphone to children is a huge fault done by their parents. Because of that most children around the world are suffering from so many issues. Children in this generation think that they can show their status and wealth by the phone they use. They waste money to buy branded smartphones as a fashion.

Smartphones decrease the capability of children's educational skills. Day-by-day school children and teenagers are addicted to using smartphones. Unlimitedly they waste their valuable time for playing games. Also they like to spend all their time talking and chatting with friends. Therefore they lose the time to learn and do their homeworks. Some students carry smartphones to schools without any permission. During their class time they use phones to access the internet, social media and chat with friends. So they miss important lessons during the school hours as well. This directly causes for their academic purposes, tests, assignments as well as examinations. This happens because of their poor attention to studies. This is a bad situation that we should pay attention to as soon as possible.

Another fault that parents do is they provide a phone to calm down children when they are crying. Parents give it as a toy. So children spend most of the day watching cartoons and playing games using smartphones. But they never think about the side effects of it. They think that it is the easiest way to do household work and other work freely. Therefore, since their childhood they have become addicted to using phones day-by-day. This is an unintentional mistake done by their parents. As a result children are suffering from eye diseases, sight problems. It is directly harmful for their brain too. So they have to suffer physically and mentally.

Another point that we have to pay attention to is children addicted to using phones while walking on roads. Then they face road accidents. Because of this careless behaviour some of them get disable and some lose their lives too. 

Some children are tempted to watch images, videos, messages consciously or unconsciously which are not suitable for them. In time they will be more inclined to share those inappropriate stuff with their friends. By looking at those things, children are automatically tempted to engage in unacceptable doings. Other than that so many girls and boys are facing so many difficulties by uploading their pictures on the internet and social media. By hacking children's accounts, some people try to mislead children to do illegal activities such as child abuse, distributing drugs.

Likewise children have to face so many issues because of using smartphones. Nowadays parents should be more careful and think twice before providing a phone. Forgetting about the bad effects of smartphones, students can use smartphones for their educational purposes and improve their knowledge. But parents should be paying attention and be there with them while they are accessing the

internet. Moreover, without giving phones parents can let them play and engage in various leisure time activities with their friends and pets. Also parents should spend their free time with children. According to my perspective, it's not the time to provide a smartphone during their childhood. Don't give them a smartphone until they are mature enough to handle it responsibly. Let's give them a chance to stay as children without adding extra stress to their mind.
