There is a huge impact to children when they use Smartphones.
Smartphones separate the children from the principle of social
interaction. Smartphones are designed to entertain the youth and adults
but this discourages the children from interacting with the other kids
as they do not really talk to each other using their mouth, but they
just type the words that they want to say on their Smartphone and sends
it to their peers. The Smartphone also lowers their confidence towards
other people. Smartphones can also ruin the child's brain development.
Rather than doing physical activities such as running and jumping with
all the other children, they just sit on the corner pressing, swiping
and tilting their Smartphone screens. This can also affect the
children's health as they are often less mobile while playing with their
Smartphones compared to what a usual kid would do. This results to
children not having enough physical exercise that could result to being
unfit and overweight or could develop any sickness or disease that may
arise from insufficient physical activities.
