A child shouldn't own a phone not to talk of a smartphone! The only time my son touches a smartphone phone is when we want him to play kids' games or research something about his studies. All these are done under strict monitoring condition. Then we have a non-smartphone (nokia) we permanently keep at home to communicate with him or maid whenever we're outside home. That's it. 1 Like |

Focusmind: You're smart tbh. I love the way you're grooming your kids till when they will nice to make informed decision while shielding them from the uncultured acts on the net. Kudos Man! Some people here think their wards cannot learn these digital skills without access to smartphone. Have a great day! |

haddeylium: Well done bro! Learning the first principle in anything is always the beginning. They should master all the basic components of the normal desktop computer we used during our own time and then laptop. These two systems are connected to the Internet and I monitor them remotely. Basic knowledge of the physical keyboard of a computer is important and how to type basic things like composition about myself, format the word documents, do simple excel additions and subtraction, type my wife's grocery lists and send to the printer to print them out. These are the basic knowledge I want them to acquire about computer and not subjecting them to the so called coding. One thing at a time. It is not about carrying tablets and be playing games, coding and forming informed 21st century kids. 1 Like 1 Share |

Please listen to me. Now that little kids of ages 9, 10,11,etc have smart phones, none of you considered eye health. Myopia will increase because children won't go outdoors and receive fresh air and see the distant horizon. Every Child will be glued to their phones. The kind of radiation the phone emits destroy the eye cells, their eyes are still growing for God's sake. They are still too young for this. |
