Electronic addiction is a major problem in kids. It can affect their lives. It makes them rely on electronics as a way to escape from real life problems. They think that a world where they control everything is better than the real world. Electronic addiction can affect a child's health, too.
Electronic addiction can impact a child's social life. It makes a child go to electronics as a way of hiding from real life situations. Some kids go on sites they're not allowed on. It makes them feel better to defy their parents. The more dependent they are on electronics, the more they are addicted.
There are also some physical affects. Electronic addiction makes a child stay up late to be on them. Using too much electronics can make their hands numb and painful. It can also cause dry eyes, back and neck aches, severe head aches, restlessness and weight changes (weight loss because of skipping meals or weight gain because of snacking while using electronics). Those are some of the affects too much electronics can have on a child's physical health.
Electronic addiction can also affect someone's emotions. It can make a kid very happy to play. It can also make a child sad or angry when they have to get off the electronic device. Some people feel so good that they'll spend hours at a time on electronics. Other people start feeling sad but keep playing because they're addicted.
That is basically what electronic addiction is: a constant need of electronics. They can have physical and emotional affects. The most common affects are emotional, but physical affects do occur. It is very difficult to stop being addicted to electronics. Difficult, but not impossible.
