Is it fair to control the time a teenager dedicates to playing computer games or using the internet?
Essay About Teenagers: Computer Games, Internet, and Parental Control. Is It Fair to Control the Time a Teenager Dedicates to Playing Computer Games or Using the Internet? According to the study conducted by Wang et al., 61\% of parents control the amount of time their children spend on the internet (1253).
Do you think that children these days have a better or worse childhood than your generation Why?_?
I think definitely, children have a better childhood than our generation. Parents are now more aware and work on their children, developing the skills of their children. You can now see children working on things like cricket, music, dance activities.
Are today’s teens closer to their parents than previous generations?
Twenge suggests that the reality is more complicated. Today’s teens are legitimately closer to their parents than previous generations, but their life course has also been shaped by income inequality that demoralizes their hopes for the future. Compared to previous generations, iGens believe they have less control over how their lives turn out.
What does respect for teens look like and why is it important?
Shifting focus from how much respect you feel you’re getting, to whether or not you’re showing them respect, is critical. Leveraging respect for teens is key to helping them stay engaged, in relationship, and in collaboration. So what does that look like? Respect for autonomy is key.
Why are today’s children less healthy than those 20 and older?
That is despite the opioid crisis amongst those 20 and older. There are some major negative factors though. One is that today’s children are less fit. Part of that may is due to decreased physical activity (more later). The other is diet which has to do with marketing and eating decisions made more by the adults around them.
Do you regret not having kids at 49 years old?
I’m a 49 year old female and have never regretted my decision to not have kids. I think I’ve always been missing the mommy gene. I like not having the responsibilities and obligations (and expenses!) that go along with having kids. View More Replies… View more comments We’re both in our mid 40s.
