KIDS AND TECH: HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH?
Incessant exposure to "all day TV," violent video games,
instant messaging, and the always accessible cell phone
interferes with the development of the psychological traits
known to be essential to positive outcomes for children,
according to Leah Klungness.
"The key to managing kids' technology use is to establish
clear 'tech-free' zones," based on Maya Talisman Frost. "This
means recognizing times when the present moment is the
priority and technology is given a secondary role. Kids need to
learn that there are times when paying attention to those around
you is of primary importance, no matter what type of urgent
phone calls or instant messages might be coming their way."
Technology access has been linked to improved reading
skills, but some believe that too much technology can impose
dangers on today's youth -- including vision impairment,
technology addiction and sexual solicitation. To be sure,
technology opens the doors to a world that includes much more
than convenience, knowledge and entertainment.
If mom and dad have a difficult time disconnecting from
technology, then kids will not see the need to disconnect either.
Parents set the tone when it comes to limiting technology.
Parents must practice what they preach. Klungness
summarized a point on which most medical experts can agree:
parents should supervise their children's use of technology.
