5 Ways to Control Your Child’s Smartphone or Tablet Addiction
4. Restrict your usage
Children learn from their parents. If you and your partner have your eyes on a screen for the most part, children will copy that. So, make sure to put your tablet or phone down while at home or minimize the usage – especially during meal times or when spending time with your kids.
5. Use as a reward
One ideal way to control your gadget-loving child is by using the gadget as a reward. Only if your child does the homework or any desired task as directed by you, allow him/her to use the device. This actually makes the child understand that playing with these tech devices is not an easy catch.
While addiction to devices is on the rise among children, it is not impossible to help them come out of it. As a parent, it is your responsibility to see to it that they do not get too busy with these devices.
