RE: Content Consumption: The Role Of Parents In Shaping Kids

in Hive Learners3 months ago

Parents have maximum role to play especially now that the technology has spread like wild fire.
Even if parents would monitor their children, how about their peers whose parents may not monitor their children, therefore influencing the once who their parents monitor?

If possible, a child shouldn't have access to the internet until after 18.

Hello, Iska. I agree with you. It's true that parents can't control everything, especially the influence of their children's peers. However, by setting a good example, having open conversations, and establishing clear boundaries, parents can shield their kids from the “unhealthy” world.

That's right ✅️

18 is quite far, I would suggest 15. And at that their phones would be monitored; we have parental controls that would help with that.

Honestly, I also think 18 is far. 15 seems like a fair age.

Yeahh. Thank you for reconsidering the age.

I got my first phone at a very early age. Though, the contents out there now are too unhealthy, but I believe at that age they should to an extent know what's right and wrong and should be able to make good decisions.
