The issue related to spending hours of smartphone from children is widely mentioned topic in modern days. There are some children who spends hours every day on their smartphones, and I state that this phenomenon is a negative development for children.
As more and more smartphones get affordable and easier to use, the amount of people who use smartphone on their daily lives is increasing as well. This is not an exception for children, since parents tend to think that buying a smartphone for their children would be easier to contact with the child. However, there are some negative effects when children have their personal smartphone. Since there are various aspects to do with their device such as playing fun games, watching fun videos on Youtube, children get easily addicted to the smartphone and tend to spend more time with their smartphone and spend less time with their families and friends. Regarding to this, the child would know less about socialization, and there would be great difficulty getting along with people later in life.
Also, if children spend massive time on their smartphones, some serious health probelm would occur and would cause them to check their health in hospitals. It is widely known that children who spend massive time on smartphones could lead to their bad eye sight. Moreover, as they spend hours every day on their smartphone, children's obesity rate would increase since they barely go outside to do some outdoor activities like playing soccer or swimming.
To recapitulate, although there could be some positive development from the phenomenon, I believe that negative development outweighs the positive since there are many negative impacts shown above that smarphone gives to children.
