In my point of view, it could be detrimental for children’s health. Because of the fact that as you can see, the majority of children tend to scroll down their smartphones and get obsessed with them for long hours. In that way, it can exert negative effects in their health, both mentally and physically. Because on the one hand, they can get access to numerous information from different areas, which most of them are not appropriate for their age. On the other hand, because they tend to use technological devices and get obsessed with gaming and something like that, they tend to lead a sedentary lifestyle, which is not good for their physical health and may lead to some chronic diseases like obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases in the adult sense.
