What are the effects of exposing children to technology at a very young age?
Posted by David Wees on Feb 12, 2009
My son is currently two and a half years old. Already he has been exposed to and used mobile phones, televisions, dvd players, computers, remote controls, air conditioners, toasters, and a variety of other electronic devices. He's ridden in cars, trains, airplanes, tuk-tuk's, vans, trucks, Fire engines, motorcycles and on bicycles. He has a lot of experience for someone his age with technology.
