Just heard of this calling kids that spend more than 4 hours a day infront of a screen including tablets and television.

What a weird way to label a generation of these screen zombies that they have become.

I never heard of "Glow Kids". I guess too much technology has also its (bad)side effect specially for kids. That's why I limit my kids access to tech gadgets like tablets. And parents should strictly monitor their kids otherwise we might have problems in the future if they keep watching or playing games in their tablets for very long.

In television there is nothing good. But in the computer you can find a lot of useful and educational information provided that you correctly monitor the time spent. This is a new age of information technology and just need to properly teach children to use such opportunities.

Depends on what they are watching. If useful training information for their age, it will only benefit. You need to teach them how to properly allocate time and effectively use the computer. And if you just plug them with a computer so they do not interfere, then you do not have to wonder why they became zombies.

In some way I agree with you... it is good for the kids (or any other age) to learn or do something useful (by the computer or any other place), but it is not good if they spend too much time in front of screen, it is not good for the eyes, for the brain...

I agree with you. It is necessary to closely monitor the fact that the child is watching on TV or on the phone. It is best for the child to look at developing programs. But still need to teach the child to walk on the street

When I saw the title of this topic, Glow Kids, I immediately thought of glowing kids, like literally a kid who glows like a glowstick. Lol. I don't think that being in front of a TV or tablets could lead to that but it would have some effects probably.

But how to control the whole process. After all, it's not always what you tuned in that will be broadcast. Can they themselves put what they like. Of course, in such an option it is very practical to teach, but there can be problems.

Just heard of this calling kids that spend more than 4 hours a day infront of a screen including tablets and television.

The scary thing is that they spend a lot more then 4 hours a day, since when they are not at home (where they are in front of TV, computer monitor, tablets...) they are in front of their mobile phone with big screen and screens are getting bigger and bigger

You can look at this from the other side. If a child watches a training video, plays games that develop thinking, look for the necessary information, and sometimes even earn money on the Internet ... then this will be a huge step towards full development. Just need to adopt new technologies and a reasonable way to use them.

You must first determine at what age the child is watching this video. Not every child can perceive this information. Teaching a child It is necessary, but it is only strictly individual and with the right approach.

It actually stunts growth of the brain and causes psychotic episodes later on in life.
What a weird way to label a generation of these screen zombies that they have become.

What happens if adults do the same thing?

Then it doesn't matter, because apparently people enjoy finding potentially negative aspects about any generation other than their own and trying to insult the generation as if the Internet and other screens aren't enjoyable in their lives.

I'm sure other generations do equally irresponsible things. The younger generation isn't totally screwed, if anything the Internet can be enlightening which is why we're on Bitcointalk.

Yes. In this parents are to blame, because instead of walking they put children on gadgets, and then wonder why they get sick. They then do not know how to communicate in real life, spoil the sight and posture, there are depressions. It is better to find a hobby in the open air for children.
