Parents of today's teenagers are most concerned about the fact that their children spend entire days watching television.
Parents of modern teenagers, even with a strong desire, will not be able to learn to navigate the virtual space.
An educated person should not use the Internet.
Modern teenagers today communicate via the Internet.
A visit to a specialist is only necessary if a teenager begins to show signs of Internet addiction.
(1) In the last few years, another one has been added to the usual fears of parents. (2) Increasingly, teenagers scare us with their addiction to virtual communication. (3) Here are examples of complaints. “(4) You can’t drag children away from the computer. (5) They sit for days. (6) Some kind of ICQ, agents, chats, forums...” “(7) I don’t understand what pleasure there could be from this. (8) But the son is sitting at the monitor, laughing at something, or even hitting the table with his fist. (9) It seems to me that he is going crazy - talking to himself.” “(10) I used to play video games, it took a lot of time, I abandoned my homework, but now it’s completely out of hand - it’s like he’s not at home. (11) All day long on the Internet, he says, they have a party there...” (12) This is roughly how the conversation between concerned parents and teachers and psychologists begins. (13) Then the details become clear: along with the passion for computer conversations, academic performance began to fall, the child spends all the time at home, sitting and looking at the screen. (14) The teenager doesn’t do his homework, doesn’t help around the house, doesn’t go outside, doesn’t play sports. (15) Instead of talking on the phone and walking late into the night, children increasingly communicate with each other via the Internet. (16) Actually, we’ve heard similar complaints before, only the evil then came not from the computer, but from the telephone or TV. (17) Today's “computer” children are the descendants of their “television” parents. (18) How was this problem solved when today’s parents were teenagers? (19) Most likely, they simply grew out of it... (20) It may be objected to me that not everyone sat endless hours in front of the television screen; Some people already knew clearly in their youth what they would do in life. (21) Many became responsible early, because some had younger brothers and sisters, some were influenced by the example of responsible adults, and others - it is unknown how and why. (22) And although their parents seriously feared for their future, they became completely independent people, with different professions and destinies, many with families... (23) Why am I saying all this? (24) Moreover, television turned out to be not dangerous in itself. (25) No matter how offensive it may be for someone to realize their own “backwardness,” they will have to come to terms with the fact that the Internet has become a part of our lives and is not going anywhere. (26) The ability to navigate it and use its capabilities becomes a condition for a successful life in many senses. (27) From an unlimited source of information, it has also turned into a trading network, a method of communication, a means of education... (28) More to come. (29) We should learn from children. (30) I, too, at one time had to go through a period of irritation and discontent. (31) And now, with the help of my son, I have become quite good at navigating the virtual space. (32) It happens that you can’t “pull it away” either... (ZZ) Spending time online is quite acceptable for teenagers. (34) Most likely, this harmless hobby lies within the age norm. (35) Although in some cases it is necessary to analyze the situation.
