Fans of today’s advancements may argue that there is no validity in the parental fear of losing a child to “technology play.” They will argue that computers are good for children, that today’s’ kids have access to resources that their parents never dreamed of, and that the click of mouse can put children in touch with an infinite amount of information. Taken in their “ideal” circumstances, these points are virtually inarguable. Taken in actually, however, these points are questionable.
Believe what you will, but the truth is that children do not always research giraffes and astronauts. Most computers are equipped with games and many children can, and will, spend an entire day playing them. Without a 24-hour monitoring process, even the most well-meaning parent who demands computer study time could be replacing television with an equally damaging surrogate.
Unfortunately, some of the resources to which children have access are unsuitable. Although blocks can be put on most online pornography, it is virtually impossible for parents to censor all inappropriate material. Not to mention that your child’s friend down the street may still have access.
Much of today’s technological play lacks many of the qualities of real play. A child who participates exclusively in technological play is being deprived of natural interaction.
Emotionally, children need time with friends. This definition of “friends” does not include on-line correspondence with strangers, but rather refers to the physical presence of others with whom children learn to interact, share and react. Play is an important part of becoming human. It is through play that children learn valuable lessons that they carry on to adulthood. A child who sits at a computer all day or locks herself in her room to play Game boy or Text all day is probably not experiencing the peer contact essential for emotional growth.
Physically, children need exercise. A child who spends the majority of his or her waking hours at the computer is probably not receiving the benefits of “old-fashioned” play. There is no running, no jumping, and no appreciation of “real” nature. Range of motion at the computer is limited to hand-eye coordination.
Last but not the least, children need mental stimulation. This is not to say that technological play is not mentally challenging. On the contrary. Chess against the computer is perhaps one of the most mentally challenging activities with which a child can be involved. However, problem-solving and competition are perhaps both most effective when applied to real life as learned through real life interactions. Not to mention, that in an age where computers are dealing out three-dimensional demons and weapons of mass destruction, child’s imagination is sometimes limited to the creative capabilities of the software designer.
So what are parents to do to limit technological play? Obviously, monitoring every moment of your child’s time on the computer or video games or text is not an option. Here are some logical alternatives to turn your kids onto “real life” play.
· Limit computer time.
· Encourage outside play.
· Let friends stay over.
· Travel.
· Become a cheerleader.
· Take an interest in your child’s activities.
· Put a block on adult material.
· Make family time a priority.
· Have fun together.
· Talk to your kids or Bible stories

Romantic Teens
By pinoyhackers
04-13-08
The pro of romantic teen relationship include having someone on their side when the world seems dark, and having an inspiration, especially when your sweetheart is a varsity player, a writer, a dancer, a game online player or a basketball player in your school and it is common for teenagers. Some are sincere and mature in dealing with relationships.
Some common teen relationships include early conflict to their family problems and emotional breakdown. Initially, teenagers seem unaware of these poppy loves. But when they experience them, they have no choice but to accept the circumstances or reality.
It is important for you, teens, to know your limitations and to always remember that your parents trust you. And know how to tell your parents you are already committed. Sometimes you resort to lying. Then, too, most teens are curious about sex and want to try it. Others say romantic relationships serve as an inspiration, but most of the time, you are a distraction from more important matters, like studies.
Everybody has the need to love and be loved. When you have a sweetheart, you are inspired. You always want to look your best.
Sadly, there are times when you don't want to go to school because you just want to be in your sweetheart's arms. And due to absences, you get low or falling grades.
There are types of cons include:
1. Obsession Syndrome - when you can't eat or sleep because you're whole
world revolves around your sweetheart.
2. Text Jealousy Fever - when you can't help but read your sweethearts text
messages and scold him for texting his girl
classmates.
3. Super-duper Inferiority
Complex - when you get annoyed because your boyfriend tells
you he has a crush on your sister.
For me it's okay for teens to have a romantic relationship as long as they can handle it. Oftentimes, however, early marriages, not being able to finish school, or abandonment by parents, confront them.
As you mature, you realize that you love somebody else. This may lead to a breakup. When a boy marries while still in his teens, he has the tendency to flirt, while the inclined to become happy-go-lucky.
