In my opinion, the excessive use of electronic devices such as tablets and cell phones can be detrimental to children’s health. The games and apps found on these devices can easily become addictive. These games and apps are mostly not educational. This often results in children spending less time on healthy physical activities. This is particularly problematic for some children. These children are overweight. In addition, the unsupervised use of electronic devices provides children with access to the internet and social media platforms.
