Hi mylotters. I have seen people giving small kids mobile phones and other gadgets to use. They then spend time on these gadgets by playing games. They don't play outdoor games anymore. Moreover, it's seen that due to constant use of mobiles and other gadgets, their eyes are affected and get spectacles in small age. I personally feel till certain age, children shouldn't be given mobiles or other gadgets as they get addicted to it. What you people think about it? Do share.

I think like with everything else moderation is the key. My children have one hour to play games a day on a phone-after school work and chores are done. Other than that they play outside or make up games.

No, they should be given real books and go outside to experience the real world.

I have noticed that many children now use glasses because they see the gadget screen too close.

I'm agree with you. It's make children be more introvert. Even though, in the certain age they must be more active, playing outside, learn about environment around them, be more sociable..

I feel the same. They shouldn't be given till a certain age. They should be made to explore the outside environment and should be made more enthusiastic and playful than being engrossed in the gadgets' world.

They should be allowed to play outside activities.. than playing mobile games.. Or else children will miss many things when they look back their life..
