Indlela yokuLima ixesha loKhuseleko kunye nokuThatha uLawulo lweMithombo yeMedia
Abantwana bachitha umyinge wamahora angama-7/2 ngelilanga usebenzisa i-media media, equka iTV, i-intanethi, imidlalo yevidiyo kunye namadivayisi eselula, ngokwembiko ka-2010 ka-Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation.
Ukuyibeka ngenye indlela, oko kuthetha ukuba abantwana baxhunyiwe kwindlela ethile yokwenza iikhompyutha ngeeyure ezingaphezu kwama-53 ngeveki, ixesha elide kunokuba abantu abaninzi abakhulileyo basebenze emsebenzini, bathi abaphandi abaphando.
Yikes. Kwaye xa kuthengwa i-TV njengokuba ubukela i-TV ngelixa kukhwela i-intanethi ingqalelo, inamba iya kwiiyure ezili-10 kunye nemizuzu engama-45. Yikesibini.
Uphando lwe-8 ukuya kwe-18 ubudala luye lwafumanisa ukuba abantwana abasebenzisayo abasebenzisayo beendaba banamabanga amanqanaba kunabantwana abasebenzisi abasebenzisayo. Kwaye abangaphantsi kwesigqane sezingane (46 ekhulwini) babike ukuba banemithetho malunga ne-TV ebonisa ukuba bayayibukela. Iipesenti ezingama-30 kuphela zezingane zabazali ababeka imithetho malunga nemidlalo yevidiyo abangayidlala ngayo kunye neepesenti ezingama-26 kuphela ebeziphethe malunga nomculo abaphulaphulayo.
Oku kukuhlazola kuba xa abazali beka nawuphi na uhlobo lwemithetho yeendaba, abantwana bafunyenwe bachitha ixesha elincinci kubo. Abantwana ababazali babo babeka imithetho yemidiya bachithe phantse iiyure ezisezantsi kwizixhobo zecomputer kunezingane ezisemakhaya ezingenamthetho.
Ukusetyenziswa kokusetyenziswa kwekhompyutheni kuya kukhula njengoko abafundi besikolo bekhula kwaye baqala ukubetha iminyaka yabo emibini.
Yintoni abazali abangabantwana abancinane abakwenzayo ngoku ukuba baqiniseke ukuba asikhulanga isizukulwana sabantwana abaxhonywe kwiidivaysi kwaye baxhomekeke kubantu?
Okokuqala, sinokubukela ukusetyenziswa kwethu kweendaba. Ndiyazi ukuba ndifanele ndikhumbuze ngaphezu kwamanqaku ambalwa ukuba ndihambe kude nekhompyutheni okanye umnxeba kwaye ndithetha nomntwana wam ubuso ubuso nobuso, ngokukodwa xa "ixesha lentsapho" -iyure nje ngaphambi nangemva kwexesha lokutya xa ukuvala umsebenzi wesikolo kunye nokulungela isidlo okanye ukulala.
Kwaye sinokucima iTV xa singaboni inkqubo ethile, okanye ucime iterediyo ngexesha lokufunda elithulileyo. Kwindlu yethu, siyeka ukubhalisa kwiminyaka emithathu edlulileyo, kwaye sisebenzise kuphela iTV ye-Wii imidlalo okanye ubukele iiDVD. Andikwazi ukukuxelela ukuba yintoni eyenza umehluko ongenalo ukuthengiswa kweentengiso kwaye "ukuphula iindaba" zihlasela rhoqo indawo yethu. (Kunoko, sifumana iindaba zethu kwi-intanethi, kumaphephandaba nakumaphephancwadi, kwaye sifumane iimagazini zeendaba zezingane ezifana ne "Time for Kids.")
Ziziphi iimanyathelo ozithathile ekhaya lakho ukunciphisa amajelo e-elektroniki ? Ukusetyenziswa kweendaba zezingane zakho kuqhathaniswa neenombolo zophando zeKaiser?
