What to do if your child is constantly on the phone: tips for advanced parents
Phone addiction develops at an early age, but parents react to this problem too late.
If it suddenly becomes clear that your child is spending more time on the phone than is appropriate, then it’s time to intervene in the situation.
Experts have given some advice that will help a child get rid of addiction. But for this you need to be an advanced user.
So, if board games and the street don't help, follow this plan.
1. Remove the applications that your child uses most often, or set days and times when your child will spend time without modern means of communication at all.
2. The next step is to hide the applications that interest the child when he picks up the gadget impulsively and does not know what to do with himself. Disable password saving so that he has to enter the login and password every time.
This will complicate the process, which means the pleasure will not be the same.
3. Turn off the sound of the device so that it is less likely to attract the child with notifications, which is actively used by app developers.
4. Adjust the screen theme to make the image unattractive. Grayscale has been proven to be the least eye-catching.
5. Be sure to buy your child a wristwatch and a bedside alarm clock. He will stop using a gadget to keep track of time.
6. If the smartphone settings get messed up, the device starts glitching, or the screen breaks, don’t rush to take everything on yourself. Let the child deal with the problem themselves.
Lastly, set aside time during the day when your child can use the device without any problems.
