Use of technology at home can affect children's growth and development




A new study shows that it is not enough to simply limit children's screen time, because the way parents use technology around their children can affect their growth and development at home.

Quoted from Medical Daily many parents use their phones during mealtimes or playtimes without thinking twice. The habit creates a growing disorder known as "phubbing," when technology gets in the way of face-to-face relationships.

Aspects of growth and development that can be disrupted include cognitive development and emotional well-being.
