  • While tech-time can help kids to learn, it can also contribute to obesity, lack of physical fitness, inaccurate or warped thinking and other negative consequences.
  • Spending hours in front of screen, whether it is a television or computer, can quickly contribute to a serious decrease in the amount of physical activity that a child gets during the day. Children need at least 60 minutes of physical activity each day to maintain a healthy weight and level of fitness, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The more tech-time that a child engages in, the less likely it is that he will get in his daily dose of physical activity. This can, in turn, contribute to negative effects such as weight gain

  • children who use social media may not fully understand how the anonymity of the Internet allows predators to pose as kids, putting them at risk in the event that they give out personal information or plan an in-person meeting.
  • Your child can develop a warped sense of reality and what is, and isn't, acceptable when it comes to his actions.
  • The American Academy of Pediatrics, on its Healthy Children website, recommends that parents screen what their kids are watching and discuss negative media images.
  • the media may portray an idealized image of the child or teenager when it comes to weight and appearance.
  • Between the TV, laptops, tablets, cell phones, iPods and all of the other technological devices that your child uses, he is constantly inundated with an array of media images. These often include, and glorify, negative behaviors such as underage drinking, drug use or risky sexual situations

  • We isolate ourselves by walking around in our own little world, listening to our iPods or staring at the screen of the latest mobile device even when we are around other people. Studies have shown that people who are socially isolated will live shorter live
  • The more time people are spending engrossed in video games, talking to friends online and watching funny cat videos on YouTube, they are spending less time being active or exercising.
  • Some of the negative effects of technology can be linked to the effect it has on sleep habits. We get sucked into online activities that keep us up too late and the constant stream of information can make it difficult to turn off our brains
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • The internet has stripped the world of privacy. Long gone are the days of having an unlisted telephone number and staying offline to keep your information safe from prying eyes. With a few flicks on a keyboard the average person can find anyone’s address and contact information
  • On the flip side of having no privacy, people use the internet to deceive others. Most people don’t dig too deeply when doing a search on someone to check them out. By creating a few false profiles, people are able to pretend to be whomever they want. People are being “catfished” on dating sites. Hell, you could be talking to someone on the FBI’s top ten most wanted list and not realize it until you see them getting arrested on the news
  • Exposure to sexual content is more likely to happen at a much younger age. Before the internet the only chance a child had of being exposed to pornography was if their dad didn’t hide his Playboy magazine well enough. Now, well, let’s just say you pray your filters are doing their job when your kid searches for “Puss and Donkey” from Shrek.
  • People are not only dependent on technology they are also addicted to it. Studies have shown that when cell phones are taken away subjects heard or felt fathom vibrations, continuously reached for phones that weren’t there and became fidgety and restless. These are some of the same withdrawal symptoms you would expect from doing drugs.

    Isn't this a Blog though? Its a good idea boggler, but are you sure its a credible source? The part on sleep deprivation, "the constant stream of information can make it difficult to turn off our brain" is a really good and obscure point. Does this in turn lead us to less function ability, exhaustion of the brain, but stagnancy of the body. Hmm...

  • "Studies show that reading develops imagination, induction, reflection and critical thinking, as well as vocabulary," Greenfield said. "Reading for pleasure is the key to developing these skills. Students today have more visual literacy and less print literacy. Many students do not read for pleasure and have not for decades."
  • Among the studies Greenfield analyzed was a classroom study showing that students who were given access to the Internet during class and were encouraged to use it during lectures did not process what the speaker said as well as students who did not have Internet access. When students were tested after class lectures, those who did not have Internet access performed better than those who did.
