Some parents forbid young children from owning smart phones (cell phones with Internet access), while others disagree and believe that they are important tools for keeping in touch. Which point of view do you think is better, and why?
In our world, news are changing and information is overwhelming. With the smart phone, we can definitely use it to understand our fancy and wonderful world. However, with these good benefits, the smartphones for young children could have some bad impacts. Here are my several reasons that I think parent should not let their children use the smart phones too much.
First, using the smart phone for long time will cause eye problems. Many people are going to the hospital to cure their eyes, because the light of phone could make the eyes abstract. Furthermore, the situation becomes worse when we are older. It is even an unrecovered illness.
Secondly, Children with the smart phone could be more distracted on daily life than others. In my opinion, students who spend more time and pay more attenttion on school have more likely to attend the school activities, and, at the same time, have even greater scores on their subject. If we just let young children use the smart phone whatever they want, disasters will happen. Children haven't yet prepared to arrange their time on school and have fun with phone. So, parents could limit the using time for their children.
Finally, smart phones with the internet could cause bad effect on young children. In our world, the internet is contained a lot of bad things, such as fishing website, 18+ ADs and unreal news. Adults have fallen into these traps, so as children. Although the internet can help us learning new knowledges, we still need to discern the right information. If we let young children close to the smart phone for a long time, these bad things could more likely have bad effect on them.
In conclusion, the smart phones are helpful in adult worldm, but, we still need a complete education for children before they are going to use it. In these opinions above, I think that parents should prevent children from owning smart phones.
