  • In today's world where technology connects people
    all across the world, mobile phones have become
    very popular among all age groups but especially
    teenagers. Having a mobile phone is becoming more
    than normal for all the youngsters. But as much
    as these devices reduce their wastage of time and
    strength, it can also be addictive and unhealthy.
  • Many diseases and health problems have been found
    over the years due to usage of these devices.
    Being the best CBSE residential school in
    Bhubaneswar, we understand that almost every
    parent is worried about their children spending
    more than enough time on screen, we have enlist
    the major signs to analyse if your child is
    addicted to his/her phone

1. Screen Use   Is your child staring at his/her
mobile screen for hours continuously? If yes,
then you have got a problem. This problem is
recognized as obsessiveness and compulsiveness
towards their mobile phones. It can cause severe
anxiety and panic attacks when forced to stay
away from their mobile phones.   This is due to
none other reason but their "Addiction" to their
mobile phones. You must check on your child and
help them manage their mobile usage time. If not
taken care at the correct time this can result in
bad conditions of mind and body, and will require
expert assistance and care.

2. Loss of Interest   The best residential
schools in Odisha found that if your child had a
keen interest in sports, art, dance, etc., but
now only enjoys spending time on his/her mobile
phones then it is time you act upon it.   This
can affect a child's self esteem and result in
many negative ways. This problem usually occurs
when your child is indulged in their smartphones
for long hours.   3. Social Problems   This
problem can ruin your child's social life and may
have an impact on their interactive skills. As
they start spending more and more time on their
smartphones and not with their friends and
family, they slowly and gradually isolate
themselves from the rest of the world. And become
best friends with their smartphones.   They
might feel uncomfortable communicating with
people physically but virtually. At this stage, a
child's growth is affected adversely as they lose
the ability to concentrate and communicate.

4. Absorb their Thoughts   The Top CBSE schools
in Bhubaneswar explains that once your child
starts to spend an excessive amount of their time
on smartphones they tend to think about the
things they consume on the phone throughout the
day.   No matter if their smartphones are in
their hands or not, they still process and speak
a lot about what they have heard and seen. This
affects their sleep cycle and disrupts their
schedule because they might stay up all night to
watch videos or play games. This is where your
child might even pick up insomnia due to worse
sleeping habits.
To reduce the risk of smartphone addiction
parents play a major role. Monitoring your
child's screen time and putting some ground rules
and restrictions are the best you can do.
Moreover, we suggest you spend some time with
your kid and explain the effects of overuse of
these devices.   You can also enroll your child
to the best boarding school in Bhubaneswar, ODM
Public School where teachers understand the
importance of spending time away from smartphones
for students and help them to grow in life, not
just academically but also mentally.
