The main plus of children's phone – control over the child. However it is necessary to face also minuses which need to be minimized that harm was not done.
Harm to health
The cell phone is harmful to the child not only because of radiation. Sight and hearing - here to what it is necessary to pay attention when the child uncontrolledly "hangs" in phone. Rather small screen demands the special tension of eyes owing to what the sight can worsen. Vacuum earphones and a loud sound lead to the fact that hearing at the child loses sharpness. And constantly hung head during the games or viewing videos on phone contributes to the development of cervical osteochondrosis.
Alternative to communication
With the advent of various programs for the cell phone children forgot to communicate live. A variety of games, ease of obtaining information and communication is exclusive via mobile applications – pretty fast forms dependence. The child eats, sleeps and goes with phone everywhere. It is impossible to start just a conversation with the schoolmate already. It is easier to write the message and to send a smilie. Sometimes the dependence on the gadget becomes too obvious and persuasive. Then it is necessary to address the psychologist at once.
Not to bring a situation to experts, find an alternative. The child likes to listen to music – buy tickets on koncentre and you descend all family. Corresponds by phone much – allow to bring friends home. Realize need of the child, but in a real and safe situation.
Decrease in attention
The cell phone – the powerful absorber of time. Calls, messages to friends, games take away a large number of time. This time could be spent on performance of lessons, circles and a hobby. If the child puts aside phone and picks up the book, and you at this moment need its help, then wait. He will always manage to help.
Danger of robbery
If you buy to the child expensive phone, that is a high probability of its theft from the child. Schoolmates who will want to have at themselves the same gadget can even be pilferers. At best if to just pull out phone from a backpack. And can select also by force that will cause a psychological trauma.
Buying phone to the child at early age, do not forget about security measures. Harm to health which it can cause to the child much more exceeds any advantage. One more important aspect is that the child will find all that information which you would wish to hide from it in network. If this nuance is relevant for you, buy phone of the simplest model without a possibility of an exit in a world wide web. In addition put strictly fixed sum on the account of phone. So the child will know that phone - not a toy, but the means of communication.
