Nowadays, computers are much accessible to everyone. To the extent that someone is being addicted and interferes with daily life. Especially to children who can just log in and can search everything in the net. What should we do? Are there are any laws that protect them?

Yes it is unhealthy in various ways to get addicted to the internet. And it is not only for kids. Adults can look for obscene sites and risk their marriages. Otehrs may spend hours online to try to earn money online and there are various health risks, including tension, stress to the eyes and damage to one's hand. There is not much one can do apart from trying to restrain himself. Obviously parents need to protect their children by being aware of what to lock, and place the computer in the living area where they can be seen.

Yes I do agree with you. Parents should monitor their children always and provide schedule time when to do internet. School assignment should be prioritize above all.
