Is Modern Technology worth losing Family Relationships?

The person born in the 90s and late 80s can easily observe the drastic transition of values among relationships. A child that is being grown up in this era would pick up some of the harmful habits that one could never have imagined in the 80s. If we break down the phases of child growth in segments of three years each, we can easily understand what is being wrong in our lives.

Phase I (1-3 years):
This phase needs a careful protection and guidance from mother. The baby would pick up a lot of things from what he sees. If you always play games on your android phone or watch tv all the day, the kid would start doing it as soon as he gets grip and strength among his limbs. No mother would like to let the kid get close to something that involves the radiation. I know a lot of people would disagree with me that it’s the era of modern technology and Blah! Blah! But I am just focusing on one side i.e harmful one.

Phase II (3-6 years):
This phase involves the period when a child starts to think on creative ideas and his neural structures develop at a very rapid rate. Parents must introduce discipline and provide a proper routine structure. Always limit the use of devices that can affect his health. The child will ask a lot of questions that you have to answer wisely.

Phase III (6-9 years):
This phase can be categorized as pre-personality development phase, where your child will interact with a lot of other children and will put an effort to socialize with them. At this stage, the child needs guidance for the difference between good and bad. You have to talk thoroughly to him about the problems and his achievements. You also have to be updated about his activities and interest in school.

Phase IV (9-12):
This stage is the last phase where you can have maximum impact on the child. He can still learn a lot before deciding on his own. All he needs is some strong and effective guidance from parents.

Now lets come back to the beginning about this post, no doubt technology has been improving our lifestyle but on another hand, it has led to less socialistic life and lack of some beneficial habits. We have more time devoted to social media (Not social at all), games, movies and a lot of other stuff. But when a father and son sit at the dining table and they don’t really have anything to talk about.
All we need to do is to limit the use of electronic devices and focus more on realistic relations. We need to have more face-face interactions.
