Monitor your kids Digital Time with Protect your Kid app

Every successful and Unsuccessful person has one thing in common “24 hours a day”. Only difference is, how they utilize it – Source, Unknown!!

Reviewing the true importance of “Protect your Kid” app!

Being a modern mama, I need to confess that I give my Preschooler son an hour daily to engage in his online activities. These involve listening to some evocative stories, exploring the animal world, rhyming with the beautiful visuals and more so. To me, this is not a guilt, till the time me, as a parent ensures that his digital time is limited and he has enough of outdoor peer play & socialising activities. A true maxim which suits here : “Too much of anything is bad for you“. And so, what kids need here is an equilibrium and they need to maintain that fine line.

We need a balance between the Outdoor activities, Digital Time and Family Time. Till the day this perfection goes on, I’m sure parents are happy when kids are learning something creative using the digital world.

But then, as kids grow, their choices vary, decisions start getting influenced basis their buddies, their thoughts. This is where our role as a parent comes in. We need to be psychologically observant for our child. We need to discuss about our kids attitudes, their friends, their various approaches. As kids grow our command over their digital life starts receeding. But before that reduction, teach kids to draw a fine line and keep up the balance.

To me, Digital media is something we cannot avoid, it can be a powerful teacher, if taken in a constructive manner.

Pros of Digital world for kids :

  • Helps in creative development
  • Enhances learning and encourage practical learning
  • Enhances cognitive development and hand eye coordinations
  • Helps in making friends for shy children
  • Connect with other kids of similar interests
  • Help them know diversity of the world(can prevent racism)

But despite the positive impacts, many of us see our kids landing in a different direction.

Cons of Digital world for kids :

  • Cyber Bullying
  • Violent behaviour
  • Reduced Outdoor and socializing activities
  • Connecting to Pedophiles & Pornography
  • Increase in Obesity and other Psychological /health disorders
  • Effect on academic performance
  • Leaning towards crime
  • Interference in sleep

So where is that boundary for kids ??

In a survey, it was shared that 73% of parents want to limit their kids’ TV time, and 66% talk to their kids about the dangers of social media sites”. But,  only a small quantum of respondents “actively monitor their kids’. If this “monitoring” factor is zeroed, then for sure the cons are bound to surpass the pros of technology. It can lead of excess viewing and even inappropriate content viewing.

Internet is a giant which can provide kids with ample educational and developmental information. What we as parents need to do is monitoring our child’s  viewing patterns. And here is where I believe, the new generation, an award winning app – “Protect Your Kid”, comes into picture.
