12/11/18 VIDEO PROBLEMS FOR CHILDREN
VIDEO REPORT O DANGERS OF VIDEO TIME
ESPECIALLY FOR PARENTS
Too much of even a good thing can be bad. Reading is a good thing, and sometimes amusements are good things. Reading changes us because of content, amusements change us because of actions and behavior. Electronic technology media can be very good for us, or it might be marginally acceptable for us, or it might be detrimental to us.
This is a 3 minute video report addressing the detrimental impact of "technology", especially on children, focusing on the actual changing of the physical brain. I have a lot to say about it, but I won't at this time. PLEASE watch and consider this info. It is not altogether new.
Too much time in any media format can been a threat to development and well being, and may lead to addiction, behavioral changes, relational changes, even physical changes (body and/or brain). Any of these can be a dangerous slippery slope for children (and adults), such as television (soap operas, cartoons, drama, comedy, ad infinitum), comic books, games (role playing, games of chance), movie watching, radio (music, talk, drama), amusements (sports, pleasure, self improvement), and of course, social media.
