With the modern trends of technology today, children are prone to the harmful effects that gadgets bring. Around 60-70% of children around the world between the ages of 10 and 17 are connected to mobile phones. They spend up to 5 hours or more calling, texting, or just playing games. And there will also be a mobile phone, known as the Firefly, for children under 5, it’s designed for them to simply call their mum.

The use of this gadget can be uncontrollable. It is up to you, as a mother or father, to teach your child to be responsible with their mobile phones, ask them to pay when their mobile runs out of money. Or to get some settlement from mobile companies that automatically cut off usage when the child abuses her allotment for the month.

The phone company T-Mobile has a feature that allows you, as a parent, to know the numbers your child calls. Most mobile phones today have a built-in camera, so you can tell your kids which pictures are good to take and which are bad for traffic.

Let them know that you like to look at both photos and videos, tell them that only you will be the one who can delete them.

Buy the easiest or simplest mobile phones possible. If the kids have a phone model that allows them to browse the Internet, monitor their menu programs, and log in to the built-in controls for younger mobile users.

Modern technology is making our lifestyle easier, but it also has its pros and cons. We need to teach young people about the beneficial and harmful effects that it can bring. Remember the saying: “Children are the hope of the country.”
