From what age is it recommended that my child carry a mobile phone? This is a question that many parents ask today. Due to the growing development of new technologies, in many homes it is already very normal that in a child's room there are television, video, DVD, video game, computer and also that the child already has a mobile phone.

Due to the increase in the use of devices such as computers, tablets and even mobile phones, the appearance of computer syndrome in children and in people who spend several hours a day using them is increasingly common. Do you really know what it is, its symptoms and its causes? And, most importantly, do you know how to prevent it?

In three weeks, my 7-year-old daughter is going on what is her second overnight excursion away from home. She is excited and I am also excited to see her, although a bit worried because at the school gate I heard some children in her class comment that they would play Momo, a supposed viral challenge that encourages children to end their lives.

From what age is it advisable for children to carry a mobile phone? This is a question that many parents ask today. Children and the mobile phone has become one of the most current concerns of parents due to the growing development of new technologies. It is no longer unusual to find televisions, mobile phones, tablets, DVDs, video game consoles and computers in children's rooms.

The way our children interact and new technologies bring other people into our home almost every day. Do we realize that this opens a debate about the privacy of our conversations? When new technologies threaten your family privacy and it is no longer so intimate and personal.

Neither PlayStation, nor Nintendo 3DS, nor Nintendo Switch, nor Xbox ... at home we do not have any type of consoles (nor do we plan to get any). I think it was something that my husband and I inherited from our parents, who were against this type of children's entertainment. Perhaps that is why I cannot understand the behavior of a mother who feeds her 13-year-old son because her addiction to video games is such that she does not want to get you out of the chair or take off the computer screen.

To the traditional concerns of adults when we become parents - & 34; Will my child grow up healthy and happy? & 34; & 34; How to get him to study? & 34; & 34; Will you get very sick? & 34; - in recent times we must add one more: the use of technology. More and more, children are attracted to everything that surrounds Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter or Pinterest, hence they have tricks so that parents do not see their social networks.

How many hours does your child spend in front of a screen? It is no longer just about television, and its use among the smallest of the house may be increasingly unusual, but now children have access to many more devices: tablets, computers, mobiles, game consoles ... Parents cannot help but wonder about the consequences that these have on our children, especially when they use them excessively.

As parents of adolescents, one of the issues that overwhelms us the most is the dangers that our children may face on the Internet.
