Nowadays, many parents must think deeply about the content their children consume on the internet.
I call this consumption because what we really want with the content published on YouTube, Twitter and other online platforms is to garner views in which more and more people consume these products, many of them without any type of pedagogical or educational content, but everything works in our days to sell.
Our children and, as in my case, as I am a father, my children and other people are completely vulnerable to Internet content that is available for consumption, much of it aimed at children, which causes them to lose even their youth.
Yes, it's true when I say that children with excessive daily Internet consumption lose their youth because they often stop living in the real world and start living only in a virtual world.
How many of our children who have, for example, a Playstation or a simple cell phone, most of the time when they wake up, immediately pick up the cell phone and start consuming digital content, or immediately pick up the controller of a Playstation and start playing, many because sometimes they spend days locked up at home without leaving, living only in their virtual world.
We, as parents and from another generation, have to have control over this new way of life, stimulating and educating our children, focusing mainly on prevention, explaining to them in an educational way so that they understand the risks to which they are exposed and which remain and Make sure if they suspect something they block it and tell their parents immediately and tell them anything they discover out of the ordinary.
At the moment there is already the possibility of parentally blocking some content and websites on the internet, but even so, the internet and these contents are spread everywhere, accessible with a simple click, which means that we as parents cannot neglect our attention.
The principles for me are prevention and education, explaining and listening to our children's doubts and understanding what they transmit to us, but making them accept our opinions and rules and that they accept them above all, understanding that we only want them. you are good.
It may often not seem like an easy task, but we must do it for our children, protecting them from this increasingly digital world, which makes them vulnerable human beings in an interconnected and global world like ours.
We must follow evolution and our children must also follow this same evolution so that they are not left behind, but they must be educated to distrust and be sure of what they are consuming on the internet, learning to make their choices and being aware that Behind something that seems at first harmless may be something hidden and a call to something that could affect you at the moment and in your present and future life.
As parents, we must be attentive observers, and not be afraid to say no when we see that something may be wrong and harm the healthy development of our children.
Yeah, we can't live children in this age that the world is moving in speed of light. But they must be cautioned on the things they consume. The thing is that, the approach to use could be tough because the world is so loosened
