Another aspect of the ban

Technological devices are door of virtual world. Everyone knows that world has both good sides and bad sides, so virtual world affects people especially kids. Because kids are creatures that easily influenced and parents have important roles. There is little doubt that computers are becoming more and more necessary for kids. But parents want to protect their children from dangers of computer, so some parents and schools use methods that they found. For example; Steve Jobs , a school in california and montessori education.
Steven Jobs who worked on computers, was a businessman. He has three children, so he has doubts his children development like other parents about technological devices. So Steven Jobs banned use of his own production at his home. Steven Jobs allowed to use only Ipads in limited time at his home. This is a truth method according to Steven Jobs, but when we think using Jobs’ method, it is very hard to implement for his children. Because other children use devices of his father and they want to use them too. In addition, there are many technological devices at children’ home so they want to use them, but their father did not allow to use them except Ipad but a Ipad can not do the same things that computers make. Steven Jobs afraid of addiction of technological devices, being dependent a devices, physical effort , unsocial, wasting time and kill creativity. If we look from the view of Jobs, he was right but if we look from the view of his children, this is a sad sight. Because they can not get into one’s head their father so they set measures to family relationship. If you have a father who found Apple and your father stint this on you, you feel that your father hide a important things, and maybe you think that father doesn’t love you or he loves less.
California is a state which has developed technology, but there is a school which keep away from technology devices.School uses(?) pen While school rules develop students’ imagination and their manipulative skills, school hinder technological devices that will require in work world. Intrinsically, this is a beneficial method. Children can learn to use technological devices in their devices in their years ahead but if they learn to use technological devices when they were a child, they get used to easy and they blunt their imagination. In addition, children already make acquainted with technological devices before they go to school so they cannot outgrow technological devices and this case will affect their connection school, so parents ban technological devices or they allow their children to use them in limited time before they go to school.

Montessori education is a educational approach developed by italian physician and educator Maria Montessori and characterized by emphasis on independence, freedom within limits and respect for children a child’s natural psychological, physical and social development. Actually, montessori education has both advantages and disadvantages. For example; In Montessori education, there are different ages in classess. This is reason of becoming group in classes and small children are looked down by other children because of their ages. In addition, each students have different understanding ability according to their ages. In Montessori Education, lessons are uninterrupted three hours. This is good to go ealier, but this is bad for children because they will get bored in class and teachers have to speak uninterrupted three hours. This is not healthy for both teachers and students. In addition, students move freely in the classroom state. This is a hard case for teacher because kids’ control is very a long way to hoe. Children leave their home for school and if they addict technological devices , they will be hard to get used new system.
There are many system for development of children. Most people think that technological devices are bad for children and they employ a method restricting or banning. But parents must allow to use technological devices that their children want in limited time. Because computer provide many fiction so parents train their children of using computer instead of banning or restricting. Because computer has developed educational technology for students.

Consequently, parents has doubts about technology device has harmful content for children but they provide beneficial things for children. Parents bound control for children, so both parents and students contact correctly to technology devices.

I think banning is not a passable way. The solituon is the control, but unfortunately the devices are lacking of real control. The user age determination by biometric datas should be the first step.

So if the user is a kid, then the device won't display adult or violent content. Currently kids are able to register on sites with fake personal information, they can download content for adults and so on. 

The kids also need to learn the self-control, because they can easily circumvent  the device/app detected usage time warnings by using another device/app if they want it.
