Share with us some of the positivity and negativity of technology in kids' lives

---

Well technology could have some great impact and a lot of positivity in kids life and as well it can impact their life in a negative way also.

Positivity

Here are the list of positivity of technology in kid's life.

• It makes their brain broaden - kids that are exposed to technology at a young age get to know a lot of things about technology sooner and as well as understand how the worlds works, because with the internet, they could literally socialize with others, socialize with among their peers and also have the Internet acces to understand how life works among their fellow kids.

• Through technology, kids can broaden up their research knowledge - I believe as a kid once you have the internet , and a smart device to yourself, most of your troubles are solved as you can literally search for anything on the internet then you can try as much as possible to learn as much as you want because with technology you have one unlimited resources to yourself.

• Kids exposed to technology right from a young age tends to be smarter and are also well exposed, as with technology they could easily socialize, learn about things, and not feel weird about what they can't interact with their parents with.

Technology negativity

Just like I said earlier, technology also has negative impact on kids when they have been introduced without proper care.

• Which technology comes out obsession especially with kids, they could get the wrong idea as they might be obsessed with the technology and they might tends not to have a life outside their devices any longer and become too obsessed that when the device is been seized from them, they gets to grow a little emotions and be very wary.

• It could also give wrong idea to kids and they could learn the wrong idea with the internet since they have the unlimited access and Resources to the internet, they could get whatever they want which made them vulnerable and they could also go on to do wrong and awful things on the internet, so without proper care and control technology attimes to kids , might actually give them a wrong impression of what they are doing.

How would you rate the impact of technology in kids' life? Highly positive or negative? Explain

---

I believe technology has a greater impact in kids and with the possibility of the internet, the positivity surpassed the negativity of the technology, so with this I could give a total grade of 7/10 to the impact of technology in kids life.

The negative part of the technology could be controlled as we could expose our kids and correct them on things to look for on internet with proper guidance kids could learn about technology in the right way, so with this they could have access to a lot of knowledge online and they could be very attentive and they could easily learn things at a young age.

So i believe technology has a great impact on kids other than a negative impact on them , so it would be good if we expose them use keep technology and give them a proper guidance on how it is used and what to do with it also.

Can you have control over the exposure of kids to certain technological products? How

---

Yes, there are ways that parents could control their kids exposure to technology.

There a lot of application devices that enable parents to switch their kids devices to kids mode, this is done in a sense whereby there internet access gets to be restricted to some certain browser and some certain webpage only.

Their exposure could also be monitored by introducing some application login devices and that the parents could easily check what they are doing straight up from his own device as well.

And also the parents could give a proper guidance of the Internet to their kids by telling them the certain website they should not look up to, and also give the kids access to some particular page for them only, this is done in such a way that Adults web Page could be totally blocked and as well open a Google Kids account for them.
