Abstract:
<strong>Background</strong>: The widespread adoption of smartphones and tablets has revolutionized the way parents care for their children. In recent years, these digital devices have become an integral part of modern parenting, with many parents relying on them as a means of keeping their children occupied, entertained, and educated. This phenomenon has given rise to the concept of "digital babysitters," where parents use smartphones and tablets as a substitute for human care and interaction. In Benin city, Nigeria, the increasing reliance on smartphones and tablets as digital babysitters pre

Abstract:
In the era of digitalisation, working parents today rely more than ever on electronic gadgets as digital babysitters and device-led playtime to entertain their children. The study suggests that parents and their interactions with the home environment may contribute to shaping children&rsquo;s screen time. However, many struggle to keep up with the immense variety of mobile applications easily downloaded online. Thus, long screen time exposure inhibits children&rsquo;s ability to engage actively in physical activities as well as affects children&rsquo;s well-being development. This scoping revi

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed Indonesians’ behaviors and has had an impact on many facets of daily life. People’s lives are becoming increasingly dependent on digital technologies, which is a phenomenon with conflicting effects on people’s health and happiness. This cross-sectional study focused on one such influence, namely, how the shift from the period before to during COVID-19 has affected children’s playtime and sleep duration. As part of a multicenter study, 618 adult caregivers (parents, family members, or babysitters) who visited the kindergarten in question on behalf of presch

Abstract:
Access is a key foundation to achieve digital inclusion, however, in many countries, including G20 economies, structural inequalities such as those in income, education and employment opportunities increase barriers to technology access and use, which women are likely to experience more severely.&#x0D; When promoting policies to facilitate the participation of women in the paid economy, flexible working (including teleworking), is often promoted as a solution. However, studies in several countries show that the digital world of work could further cement traditional gender roles.&#x0D; The digi

Abstract:
Several scientific studies have highlighted the negative impact of new technologies (NTs) on children’s psychological development, both in terms of emotional and cognitive development. NTs, such as smartphones, tablets, and video games, have a significant impact on children’s development, both in terms of social relationships and cognitive functions. This study aims to identify and explore the cultural models that shape children’s exposure to new technologies in early childhood.

Abstract:
The rapid adoption of smartphones and social media has coincided with a significant decline in adolescent mental health. Rates of anxiety, depression and suicidal ideation have risen sharply since 2012, corresponding to the ubiquity of the smartphone. This crisis demands urgent solutions to help the next generation develop healthy relationships with technology. The core driver of adolescent tech overuse is the collective action problem, whereby teens partake excessively because peer usage creates social pressures to conform. Even children who self-report negative impacts from social media find

Abstract:
The source of the formation of basic skills for young children is the environment that is created by surrounding adults. Modern children are introduced and seduced by mobile devices in infancy. Most often, parents use gadgets as a universal way to calm or entertain the child in order to save time for work or leisure. Touch screens and visual interfaces allow young children to interact with devices in a more responsive way than it is possible in the physical world. The experiences gained in the digital reality is carried over to the offline world, from the naive ways of interacting with the phy

The use of digital technology can become a behavioral addiction that negatively affects a person's social and academic life. Nowadays, children all over the world are becoming addicted to technologies - more so than in any past generations. Digital technology has become an integral part of everyday life, and children use it to study and play. Also, some parents use digital technology as a ‘babysitter’ to entertain their children so that the parents can do other things. This affects children's brains and their social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development. This research aims to assess

Abstract:
The easy interface of touchscreen technologies like tablets and smartphones have enabled children to access the digital world from a very young age. But while some commentators are enthusiastic about how this can open up a new world for play, learning, and developing digital skills, others see the dangers of yet more screens, inauthentic play, and time spent isolated with electronic babysitters that detract from interaction with parents and the learning of social skills. Including a glossary of key terms, this book draws on a three-year research project examining the realities of 0-5 years old
