Alas Technology! How Can I Protect My Baby?
We’re in the information age. And most of us now have two smart phones. In this world surrounded by technology, we don’t want our baby to get into this stream, do we? How can we protect our baby / child from television, smartphones and computers?
Television and Digital screens
According to experts, children under two years of age, television screen can not make much sense. The main reason for this is the duration of images broadcast on television. Images that do not stay on the screen too much - the group displays in the 5-10 sec range - not enough for the baby to make sense.
It is not possible for children under two years to visualize what they see on the screens of your television or smart devices with visual information that they encounter in real life. As such, their display of violence, fear, and alarming images is completely real for them. That’s why we should ensure that children under two years of age do not look at these screens.
In this way, we have the possibility of attracting their attention to other places, and we can spend our time with better quality.
No need to lock the screens
Nowadays, most parents do a wrong, to start to cry the child in the smart device to open the cartoons, songs, etc. to give their hands. Similarly, turning the TV on and facing it is not the solution!
Because both your television and your smart device can be addictive to children. In this case they can start to cry to reach these screens. To keep away from these screens, we have to take care of the baby until our baby or our child calms down.
For working mothers and fathers this may not be very realistic as I mentioned above. However, the five-minute period spent with the child can give you some relief. Particularly, fathers working from home should share this task with mothers. Because when your child cries, the possibility of working from home becomes stressful.
Violence on the screen and its effect on children
In today’s cartoons, the violence rate can cause heavier wounds than the armed clash that you see in the Çukur series. This is not like the elements of violence in the cartoon of the rabbit who used to say eleri Whats up my dear Bu. Evil characters who insult your friends and show violence to them can open wounds that will inflict your child’s subconscious.
Well, what to do?
Surrounded by technology, even though it may seem difficult to block it, you can reduce the time of watching TV at home, and you can use video streams over the phone as if you were just wandering with your baby. Whenever possible, you can try to teach your child NO and tell him to finish his request after that sentence.
When your child is not dependent on TV or digital screens, he / she can spend quality time. If you can get the chance to go out and play as you did in your childhood, it will collect beautiful childhood memories despite the whole technological environment. In addition, since there will not be any hidden hidden elements to be processed in the subconscious, it can establish more solid friendships with the future relations. The most important thing is that you can establish a healthy relationship with your parents.
In short, to save your child from technology, you should also give up a certain amount of technology.
