"mommy, i want handphone!" -- referring to iphone
this sentence is so common and its happening to younger & younger children. why?
i thought they are just purely love to use digital device because of its interactive feature.
think again. it is true? i asked myself. then, i did a little experiment.
i used to look at my iphone frequently on social medias, messages etc. whenever i was on my phone, my elder son, aged 3 years old would pester me to let him watch youtube on my iphone.
in my experiment, i kept my iphone away whenever i was with my elder son. initially, he asked for my iphone but after a couple of time, he seemed to got over the obsession of watching youtube on my iphone! eventually, he stopped pestering me for letting him use my iphone!!!
since then, he only asked for my iphone whenever he caught me using it. *umm*
conclusion: your children loving digital devices is it because they really loves it or is it under the influence of their parents, that is you?
you can find out the answers by carrying the experiment out!
