DIGITAL

DEVICES

Your child loves digital devices and constantly wants to use them. Many Teachers use them in the classroom a little and some a lot.    Sometimes to the extent that they become babysitters for the students while the Teacher is working with a group or individual students.  Students become dependent on them for the fast gratification they receive when playing games.  It takes away from your child socializing with other children and if they do socialize they end of playing the games together.  They loose their curiosity of exploring and doing other activities.  Setting a time limit on the devices should not be construed by the child as a punishment but as letting them be able to grow in other areas.
