How much does love brush short video affect children?The consequences may be worse than you think

Nowadays, people's dependence on the short video app is getting stronger and stronger. In public places, regardless of young and old, everyone is like a tacit understanding.

Among short video users, the number of young users cannot be underestimated.

When an adult is increasingly difficult to put down the mobile phone, it was suddenly found that the children were also deeply attracted by short videos.

Behind this, there are many "anxiety" hidden by parents.

01

Often brushing short videos, which has a significant impact on the child’s brain

Adults actually know how short videos take our attention and time.

In life, we all feel this:

Can't stop as soon as the short video brush;

I wanted to pick up my mobile phone for a while, and it had been a few hours at a time;

The more boring the phone, the more boring, the more boring, but the more you want to brush ...

This is the "charm" of short videos. During the fragmentation time, it can output fun, interactive, simple and straightforward content, with various deities that dynamic rhythm. Not to mention underage children.

Although a short video is harmless to the child to a certain extent, if the time is too long, it will have a negative impact on the child's brain development.

The specific impact includes:

Attention is not concentrated;

Nerves and memory become slow and slow;

Cognitive ability is limited;

Affect language, read and write and other learning abilities ...

Writer Elizabeth Kilby once wrote in the book "Limited Education":

"From birth to 5 years old, the child's brain neurons have established a large number of connections and neurological pathways, which are twice as fast as 5 years old.

After that, the nerve connection is trimmed, and the paths that are often used are consolidated.

If children always do one thing, such as spending time on the Internet, the only part of their enhanced pathway is related to digital activities, and those nerve connections that support future learning cannot be built enough. "

All the experiences in the child's environment are shaping their brains, and the brain is also "used in abandonment".

When a child is used to getting information, it is simple and direct, and less independent thinking, and brain development will also be affected.

And long -term short videos can also cause children to sleep insufficient sleep and have fallen spirit.

Over time, this damage is difficult to make up.

02

Children's social ability will also be affected

On the short video app, there is a very obvious button: like, as long as you click this red heart, there will be a dynamic effect jumping out.

The interaction of the message area even connects the two people in the south of the world.

Therefore, the short video meets the children's social needs to a certain extent, and can also help children build and display themselves.

In life, many children are very concerned about their own number of fans, likes, and comments. This is a way they are recognized.

However, the social interaction of this online world is worrying.

Because it is not a face -to -face communication between people, there is no brisk tone, no observation of other people's facial expressions and body language, and no instant interpretation of the emotions of others. This is very limited to the development of children's social ability.

To cultivate children's social ability, they must always encourage them to communicate face -to -face.

03

The content is uncontrollable, and it is easy to mislead the child

One of the temptations of short videos is that when your fingers fall, it is difficult for people to guess the content of the next video.

This also means that we don't know what kind of information did the child receive the video of the video with a mobile phone.

In the short video era, everyone can become a "self -media". The content is diverse. Many adult content, children can touch their fingers.

In order to earn traffic, some people try to choose eye -catching directions, such as showing off wealth, spoofing, high difficulty dangerous actions, or one -sided editing, and disseminate false information.

This information is overwhelming for adults, and minor children are even more affected by it.

For example, some children imitate the content in the short video, and some children are easily guided by negative and prejudice information.

A parent once left a message: The younger son was only 4 years old, and he would already use his mobile phone to swipe the video to see, and even started to imitate some of the movements inside.

The content of the short video platform is uncontrollable, and parents cannot really be harmless to screen.

Moreover, the push in the short video app is directed to push according to the algorithm. If your child likes the content of a certain field, the platform will always push similar short videos.

If it is a high -quality content such as science popularization and education, the impact is not great, but if it is low -quality content, it will not only form information cocoons, but also unknowingly distort children's values.

04

Let your child lose your interest in reading reading

A parent was very distressed: he carefully selected a lot of books for his children, but the child couldn't read it, so he liked to use his mobile phone to swipe videos.

This happens.

The child who is used to swiping his mobile phone, even if he gives him any interesting picture book, after a few minutes, he will still run over to ask for a mobile phone.

Why is this so?

Because of the short -term happiness when brushing the short video, the child's brain nerve gradually adapts. In order to repeat this feeling, he can easily stop it. Books and toys cannot meet the needs of the child.

On the other hand, the short video conveys fragments information, even if it is a book, a movie, a knowledge point can be condensed into a few minutes of short videos, with pictures, videos and soundtracks, visual plus hearing high intensity of hearing, audiovisual and audiovisual high intensity. Stimulation causes a large amount of dopamine to secrete the brain. The most interesting content in the book, children can always be satisfied immediately. After the child's brain is accustomed to this fast -paced information transmission method, it is difficult to sink to deeply learn some boring knowledge.

After all, the reading of the real world is not only slow and time -consuming, but also requires strong concentration.

Therefore, many children who are "addicted" for short videos are also difficult to have enthusiasm for reading in the short term.

Because the child is too slow to read the information, they need to pay time and effort, and they will show impetuousness at the beginning of reading.

If the short video is more, the child has lost its original focus and interest, and the habit of reading in depth is difficult to cultivate.

In fact, it is not to persuade everyone to "cut" on the issue of short videos. After all, the essence of short videos is also the transmission of information.

I just want to remind everyone that the current children are in the new changes every day, and they start to contact the Internet soon after they are born. This is the progress of the times, but it is also a challenge for parents.

Every parent needs to do a good job of "leaders".

On the issue of preventing short videos, we must try to achieve three points:

First, do n’t throw the phone to the child prematurely to let him swipe himself. Before the child is 6 years old, try to avoid the child's use of the mobile phone alone. Some necessary short videos can be downloaded for him first; the older child can negotiate Develop a code for mobile phone use;

Second, parents are important for their parents. Adults should avoid swiping their mobile phones for a long time, especially in front of their children. If we have a great interest in short videos or trapped in it, we cannot extricate ourselves, and children are difficult to be affected;

Third, put down the mobile phone, give the child a real companion, take the child to experience the real life, and transfer the child's attention.

There is a saying good: "Taking care of children is like taking care of the garden. Being a parent is like being a gardener."

Although parents cannot control the changes in their children's growth, they must provide a loving, safe and stable protection space to allow their children to grow up healthily.
