Thus, children tend to be lazy to do or learn other things. Malas learn to crawl, are lazy to learn to chew to eat, and are even lazy to explore new things that ultimately hinder children's growth and development.
"So as much as possible I don't give any more gadgets when eating because when I eat he really sits in the high chair, he focuses on what food is in front of him," Nikita said in uploading the @ideparentingtop account.

The various content of parenting can certainly provide benefits. However, parents must also be more critical in filtering the information obtained. For example, in seeing the model of Nikita Willy's parenting, which does not provide gadgets for their children.
For children under 2 years old, the model is ideal to do. As recommended by WHO, parents should not give gadgets to their children before they are 2 years old. Moreover, only so that they sit still and be calm.
However, when a child is over 2 years old, the trend will be difficult. Especially in today's modern era when the use of internet technology is increasingly massive. All parents can do is limit the use of gadgets.
As long as its use is still under surveillance, gadgets can be a tool that helps children's development. It can be a means of channeling creativity or learning media.
In principle, launching from the Mental Hospital Psychology Clinic page (RSJ) Grhasia, the application of parenting must be dynamic in line with child growth and development. Parents must understand the needs and abilities of children.
No less important, parents must also be able to set a good example for children. Sometimes, parents ask their children to act according to their expectations, such as being honest, not wasteful, or prohibiting using devices.
"Meanwhile, in daily life, parents often lie, like to waste money, or are even busy with gadgets in front of children," wrote RSJ Grhasia.
If that happens, the application of parenting will certainly not be effective. Instill and at the same time show these values of kindness in front of children. Indeed, children are master imitators. He learns by imitating the behavior of the people around him.
