Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Some studies showed that this trend has astrong negative influence on language development of children.
On the other hand.,other studies showed that infant directed informal computer use can be beneficial for language development in children.
Some studies proved that language development and vocabulary growth in young children are directly related to the amount of time parents spend speaking to them \& also reported that on examining language perception learning \&language production learning human human interactions had a strong influence on child's language development.
In spite of that, some parents believe that media content is educative for their children as increase their knowledge, other parents admitted to limiting their children's screen time to avoid conflict \& social isolation or distract children as they encourage parent children education to reinforce their relationship with their children.
Other researches proved that young children who spend more time on touch screen devices were more likely to have emotional problems .
In this study the investigators will discuss the positive and negative effects of screen exposure on attention and langage development of children.
