Hello friends I have been seen alot of debates on how children nowadays behave when it comes to electronics like, phones, tablet, computers. Some children can't live without them. Are there minds controlled? Are they being programmed. Have you ever been in a situation where a child cries alot and start showing lots of signs of anger when the phone is taken from their hands? Even in the supermarket and public, children lie down with anger while crying when they don't get their phones. What is really, happening, please take care of addiction especially to children

If there are things that interest him more than playing with his phone, I think the situation would be better, such as a sports he is interested in, swimming, basketball, football, badminton, or art, painting, dancing, roller skating. Or other things of interest.

This is a troublesome problem you talk about, and it is so real. Parents would rather let these kids have their way than do what is best for their children. My two nieces and nephew get an hour a day on their tablet for five days of the week. They have zero access any other time, and no way are they allowed a phone.

Unfortunately that's the way it is these days. Children have access to too much technology and get spoiled with it. They do not like having it taken away.

In moderation technology can be a great tool, but many children (and even some adults) these days are literally addicted. Often at the expense/sacrifice of other things, like actual social interaction face to face. I suspect too much virtual time is the culprit in the rise of social anxiety disorders and such. What needs to be taught is balance.
