Somebody may ask me, what did you do in your spare time when you
were a kid? My answer would be, playing soccer/football, hanging out with my
friends in the neighborhood or watching TV. I have a brother who is 7 years
younger than I am. When he was asked what he did in his free time, he told them
playing computer games with my brother. I got my first computer when I was in
primary school, and it was just the time my brother born. As a result, when he
was using computers, I had already been playing them for several years and many
different types of games. But at that time, computers were really common and
popular.
Nowadays, children can easily get in touch with computers. There come some worries that many parents are worried about their children using computers. Someone think it will cause problems like eye problems or cervical spondylopathy. Also, someone might complain that children using computer will cause incident of violence because children cannot defined the truth and the fiction. Others complain using computers will waste a lot of time which they can use the time reasonably on studying and sports exercises. On the other hand, some people argue that computer skills are important in children's lives. Using computers early can help them develop their computer skills early and it is useful. Also, someone argues that computer can help the children a lot on studying, even more than a teacher, because it can store comprehensive knowledge. We will explore these in this essay.
The most common argument is that children shouldn't use computers is because of the physical problems to their body. This is actually true. More and more kids are having eye problems. One of the biggest reasons is they use computer for such a long period of time without any rest. They are too young to take control of themselves and take care of their body health. I myself am kind of a best example. I used to play computer games for a very long time without any rest, especially in weekend and vacations. The games are so attractive. Also, when you are using computer, you may not realize how you are sitting. The way you are sitting may cause several problems to your health. The parents' worry is correct. They should prevent their children from using computers too long in order to protect their kid's eye and the whole body as well.
Another problem with children using computers is that they cannot identify the events they seen are real or not. Since we can connect to the Internet on the computer, children will learn lots of things from the Internet. Some are good to their study or their life, others may cause bad effects. Children will know something useless, even harmful, to their life. As we all know, there are lots of teenage violence events nowadays. We cannot say all of these, but half is because of what the children see on the Internet as well as the television. There are huge amounts of movies or videos talking about violence, such as underworld or problem students in high schools. Children will not think they are illegal or make a bad impact to the society because those movies make those problem guys as main characters. They will get a deep impression that fighting is cool. They will try to imitate what they see in the film. This really cause a lot of teenage violence event. In China, the teenagers who are in crime will not be punished if they are not at the age of 18. Though they will not be punished, they will be taken to a place to be educated for several months. No matter what they will do in the future, this will make negative effects to their lives. To avoid such a result, parents should do something before it happens.
Furthermore, playing video games wastes a lot of time for teenagers. Kids can use their time reasonably instead of using computer all day. The two helpful things we can do in our childhood are studying and sports. We all know it is during our teenage year that is the best time for studying. We all know children can remember more things than adults. They can learn one language easily. They have better memory. Another reason is adults need to pay their attention to different things. That is why children should go to school and they do should learn more things.
Also, children should do more exercises in their childhood. Many children are weak when they go to high school, college or even go to the society. As we all know, there are lots of children who are obesity. People are having a better life than before. We have cars to drive to everywhere we want instead of our feet. We can buy everything and book everything we want on the Internet. Many children are lack of exercises. Using computers for too much time is one of the main reasons that children do not study hard and do fewer exercises. They spend too much time sitting in front of the computers. Parents should control their children's computer using time.
Nevertheless, many people also argue that children using computer can bring benefits to kids. Since the computer skills are very important in our works nowadays, everyone may have to know the basics of computer using. If kids can practice the computer skills when they are young, they may have an advantage in their rest life including applying for school and jobs. Also, computer is an amazing machine which can store comprehensive knowledge. We all know human beings cannot be wonderful and perfect. We all have weaknesses and faults. We cannot remember everything in our brain. However, computer can solve this problem. Unless they are broken, they can store everything in their electronic brain. Children can learn huge amount of knowledge from computers.
In my opinion, children can learn a lot from using the computer. Computers using do not just have negative effects. The most important is the parents should control the time their children spend on the computers and let their children learn something from using computer instead of playing games all day. In a good way using computer can bring benefits to kids. However, most children and their parents do not realize this and in that case, computer using can only bring negative effects to them.
