"I am chatting with my friends I don't want to come in Wallmart." an eleven year old girl told her mother when her mother asked to come with her. Just imagine how badly computer has caused our society! In this modern technological world no one is away from the computer addiction. My cousin is just 2 year old and instead of painting on paper with colors at that small age she can paint on MS-paint in computer. I think this is just a beginning in future. Parents have to be aware of these otherwise children will loose their creativity. Parents have to divert their kids so they engage in other activities. Many parents would suggest different ideas for it. But according to me sports is the one of the best possible option for the parents to encourage their children for.

Some of them argue that if we encourage our child in the sports it would affect their education. In this competitive world degree education is the most important thing to survive.

So they can spend enough time to spare with their children. And as a result they can encourage child.

Some of them would argue that they have restricted their children to play game on computer every day. This argument would be fake when they out of home. When children are alone at the home then they always used to play games on computer or watching TV. So it is impossible for any parents to restrict the time of playing game on the computer. As the children grow up their habit would be really increase towards computer. When this happen, children could be spending a lot of time with computer. As a result, they have high potential of trouble with social interaction in the long run and are harder to engage in more traditional play and reading. Not to mention about the
