Les enfants et la nouvelle technologie

Les téléphones portables, à quel âge pour les enfants?

Les téléphones portables, à quel âge pour les enfants?

Presque tous les élèves capables de lire et écrire possèdent aujourd’hui un téléphone portable. Ce gadget est certes très utile, mais semble véritablement s’immiscer dans la vie de nos enfants. Le téléphone portable est le moyen de communication idéal, il est rapide, facile à utiliser, et permet de communiquer en temps réel. Mais d’un autre côté, il s’agit également d’un objet dangereux, pouvant nuire à la santé des enfants. Une étude montre que l’organisme d’un enfant de moins de 10 ans n’est pas encore prêt pour l’usage d’un téléphone portable, en raison d’une absorption trop importante des ondes émises par l’appareil. Ainsi, des maladies pourraient survenir à force d’une utilisation trop fréquente. Mais comment empêcher les enfants de les utiliser ? Une chose est sûre, moins les portables disposent d’options, moins ils sont attrayant pour les enfants. Ainsi, évitez autant que possible d’offrir à vos enfants un gadget de haute technologie qui risque d’endommager son cerveau. Sachez que le portable n’est pas recommandé pour un enfant de moins de 10 ans.

Les dangers de l'Internet

Les enfants et l'internet

Comme la vie réelle, le net recèle de nombreux pièges pour ces chères têtes blondes. Voici comment s'y préparer lorsque l'on n'y connaît rien. Sexe, violence, drogue, racisme, jeu d'argent, mauvaise rencontre sur un forum de discussion: les enfants sont les victimes faciles des contenus douteux. Pénétrant au sein du foyer familial, la toile est devenue le terrain de jeu des jeunes qui s'échangent musiques et fichiers vidéo en peer-to-peer, racontent leur vie par l'intermédiaire des blogs (journaux intimes) et se créent des réseaux d'amis sur les messageries instantanées ou les chats. Un tiers d'entre eux seraient confrontés à des images choquantes sur le web. Les parents s'avèrent souvent désemparés face à des bambins devenus plus experts qu'eux en matière de navigation. Le danger peut provenir de l'utilisation la plus anodine d'un moteur de recherche. Ainsi, une requête pour le mot «chatte» les conduira à coup sûr vers des sites pornographiques. Le spam (envoi massif de mails non sollicités) s'avère également une porte d'entrée vers des sites réservés aux adultes. De même, les forums et autres blogs attirent les adolescents en quête de rencontres. Difficile de surveiller la moindre de leurs conversations. L'univers du jeu en ligne n'est pas exempt de risques non plus, notamment pour les parties les plus violentes où les participants communiquent des informations en direct, soit par message écrit soit par micro-casque. Face à cette évolution des mœurs, il convient pour les parents d'adopter la bonne attitude, sans diaboliser internet. Ce formidable outil et moteur social doit rester encadré. Aux parents de se montrer vigilants comme ils le sont dans la rue. Des solutions de filtrage existent. Certaines fournies par les éditeurs d'antivirus s'avèrent relativement efficaces. Les pouvoirs publics désirent maintenant décliner ces précautions dans l'univers du téléphone mobile. Il ne faut toutefois pas s'alarmer inutilement. Un pédophile ne se cache pas derrière chaque site internet. Le dialogue et l'encadrement restent prépondérants pour préparer l'enfant aux dangers qui le guettent. Fasciné par le monde des adultes, celui-ci cherche d'ailleurs souvent de façon volontaire à se frotter aux interdits. On n'hésitera pas non plus à restreindre les horaires d'utilisation au moyen d'un logiciel approprié : cela afin d'éviter les risques d'une addiction aux jeux en ligne ou à la messagerie instantanée
