Technology and the Effects on Children<\/p>\n

\u0093But mom five more minutes on the iPad\u0094, is a common phrase that young children say<\/p>\n

to their parents. Growing up in this day and age children are more reliant on technological<\/p>\n

devices such as: iPads, smartphones and televisions more than ever before, it is a defining factor<\/p>\n

for the kids in Generation Alpha. Generation Alpha kids were born in 2010, ? the year the iPad<\/p>\n

was introduced and \u0093app\u0094 was the word of the year.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The controversy of whether or not<\/p>\n

technology is good or bad for children is defined by the amount of time the child spends on an<\/p>\n

electronic device. Technology does not need to be cut out of children\u0092s lives but used<\/p>\n

moderately, too much time on any form of an electronic device can be crucial to a child’s well<\/p>\n

being.<\/h2>\n

The negative effects that are happening to electronically abled children happen more and<\/p>\n

more as the technology gets more advanced.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

?One study, published in the February issue of<\/p>\n

Pediatrics, found that children who sleep near a small screen get an average of twenty one fewer<\/p>\n

minutes of sleep than kids without gadgets in their rooms ?. Three to six-year-olds need on average<\/p>\n

at least ten to twelve hours of sleep. As a child getting the right amount of sleep is crucial and<\/p>\n

technology isn\u0092t allowing children to get the adequate amount. Blue light from electronic devices<\/p>\n

can cause headaches, eye strain and irritated eyes for children. A child\u0092s sleep is affected by the<\/p>\n

harmful blue light when a child is exposed to screen time in the evening due to the elimination of<\/p>\n

Wiese 2<\/h2>\n

the hormone melatonin which regulates the sleep wake cycle. A child\u0092s body isn\u0092t able to prepare<\/p>\n

for a goodnights sleep. ?Right here talk about Sleeping and Metabolism.<\/p>\n

Talk about what technology can cause damage to children right here. ? Having eyes glued<\/p>\n

to an electronic device daily, isn\u0092t allowing children to get the right nutrients for themselves.<\/p>\n

Kids aren\u0092t wanting to go outside because they would rather spend their time on an Ipad. Going<\/p>\n

outside allows for many benefits for children and their health. Sunlight supplies our bodies with<\/p>\n

Vitamin D, which helps keep our skin healthy. \u0093Regular exposure to sunlight helps to keep your<\/p>\n

sleep cycle regular by influencing the body\u0092s production of melatonin\u0094(Patel). A physically<\/p>\n

active child gets to experience the benefits of spending time outdoors. Sadly enough many<\/p>\n

children are heavily reliant on technology for entertainment purposes and don\u0092t see the need for<\/p>\n

playing outdoors.<\/h2>\n

Child obesity rates have risen since technology has been more apparent in children’s<\/p>\n

lives. \u0093In 2012 child obesity was measured at twelve percent, which is an eleven point difference<\/p>\n

from 1980\u0094(Patel). Parents cannot leave it up to the children to make all healthy decisions for<\/p>\n

them, they have to lead by example. Starting out parents must be strict about the rules regarding<\/p>\n

when children can play video games, watch television, and play on their iPads. Setting daily<\/p>\n

limits for the use of technology and having kids use it purposefully is key. The majority of time<\/p>\n

on an electronic device for a young child should be for reading books, especially before bedtime.<\/p>\n

Talk about dangers in the internet world right here. ? It is believed that technology<\/p>\n

enhances child curiosity, which can be both a good and bad thing. The internet can be a dark<\/p>\n

world, especially for curious children that want to learn about anything and everything.<\/p>\n

Wiese 3<\/h2>\n

Many people believe that technology is an amazing learning tool for their children.<\/p>\n

Parents see more variety of learning opportunities with the different learning apps that are<\/p>\n

provided for children to use on their electronic devices. ?Being able to problem solve<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
