Mobile phones and TV for kids !

Posted: 13 years ago

What was this sneha's addiction with mobile phone  ?She wasn't ready to turn it off or hand it over to new mom ?? ðŸ˜³ 

Teenagers are specially obsessed with texting /SMSing .  How important is that? 

Are you in agreement with Sujata's proposed restrictions on mobile phone ka usage ? ...I am in total agreement.

Also some stupid reasons like kids can't have dinner without watching TV ??? How stupid is that ? 😳

of course a teenager needs to be kept in check by the parents thats right. its only to make sure they r not heading the wrong path. theres nothing wrong. but as far as the acting mother taking the mobile phone i dont know how right is that.
sujata cudve suggested the father or the grandmother to have the phone . whatever it is after all its only an exchange act for a few days and anyone esp teenagers can be too rigid to acceptance.
 
dinner while watching tv shd be ok i feel. nothing wrong as far as it doesnt stop family interaction.

I do understand the need of mobile phones.. specially in a city like Mumbai.. where day to day commute is difficult and time consuming.. so understand the need to keep connected.. but that's what it should be for.. I don't understand the obsession of today's teenagers for texting/SMS etc... they meet their friends in collages.. and then after coming home are still busy with friends on phone for hours.. I don't get it ðŸ˜•

I agree with u Purva and Arjun.


Although mobiles are necessary nowadays, since life is very uncertain, I strongly feel parents should keep check on the mobile phone usage by their kids.

Excessive use of technology without serving a particular meaningful purpose is bad news since it becomes an addiction for the plural society. It differs from person to person.

Nowadays mobile has become a necessity rather than a luxury. We live in a very uncertain world and hence giving mobiles to college going students is I feel OK.  Any thing in moderation is fine but yes excessive usage of mobiles is not good. But once you give them they are bound to use it as per their will. Only way to keep a check on them is to check their mobiles but again it depends upon the relationship between parents and the child. Even then many teenagers wont like it and how appropriate it might be is debatable. 😳 Though yes limited usage of mobiles phones for their need would be ideal and somewhere parents must draw the line on the usage of it, how, well that entirely depends upon the child and parent relationship as each relationship is different.

Confession time… I cannot live without my mobile 😳 And my reason is pretty simple, My phone is my way of staying in touch with my family… And the added advantages I get from it??? A personal assistant at my disposal 24x7 😳 I don't think I could get a better deal 😕

Well everyone knows that cell phone is needed for communication with your loved ones. Thats not the argument here.

Look at the addiction of Sneha with mobile ? Why does she need to sms friends all night ? That addiction is not good for kids. I see

And cellphones has its own terrible side effects for kids ...see this
