As parents, desiring the very best for our children comes as no surprise. Consequently, we have strived to provide them with electronics so as to meet their school and entertainment needs. We are in a digital age, and often the kids have research, homework and projects to do online. Every now and then, they even have to submit their homework via online…meaning we had to get them an email address.
This ‘online exploration’ has bought on another dilemma…online games. Unlike Video games which one could easily disconnect the device, online games are a breeze and browser away. O! Now we noticed the kids even have made online profiles for their gaming sites.
Aware of the fact that it will be fruitless to fight about the online games, we have resulted to educating them about being ‘digital smart.’ We also challenged them to create their own digital games.
