Psychologist: Letting children play with iPads and other tablets is tantamount to child abuse

Psychologists say that allowing children under two to play with iPads or other tablets is tantamount to child abuse, as the digital world presented on the screen may distort their future outlook on life and the world. Professor Richard House said that allowing children to use smart devices is like "playing Russian roulette with growth". In an interview with Nursery World, he said: "Exposing children to the virtual and magical world created by technology without sufficient understanding of the world will confuse them and go against the natural development of things."




When these children's brains are exposed to these virtual things at an early stage of growth, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not develop a distorted world and life view when they grow up, which will have a negative impact. Professor House is the founder of Early Childhood Action, which is committed to opposing parents' use of touch devices in children's growth environment.
