Disadvantages of computers - children

Answer 1

Unless the user owns a laptop, any power outage will disrupt the computer and it shuts down due to said outage.

Also, with the advent of SMS, these messages may not convey emotion, especially in sarcastic messages, resulting in misinterpretation. These services, along with email, rely on the internet, which can result in hackers seeing your info when it is distributed to a server.

In health terms, addiction to computers, result in prolonged use of it, which may cause eye strain and stuff.

Answer 2

Typically, in normal use, there aren't any serious dangers from a computer for children; however computers are electrical (just like a TV) and usually heavy (just like TV) so I would say treat your child's interaction with a computer the same as if they were watching TV -- TVs can electrocute you, TVs can fall off the stand, and watching too much TV (just like staring at a computer screen) can cause eye strain.

1. They can get onto chat websites and get talking to total strangers. They obviously arent strangers cause they spoken to them enough to arrange a meetin with them:p
2. They can get addicted to violent and rude games. The games arent violent or rude. It is how you perceive them that makes it violent or rude.
3. They can get tricked into meeting a person pretending to be someone or something else, if they are stupid enough to meet them in the first place...

It is easy to click something on a Google search or accidentily go to another websites.

Well, if you throw a computer at someone, it can hurt a lot.

Looking at a screen for too long can also cause headaches.
