Learn Parenting Techniques On How To Control Your Child Surfing Internet

There is a condition called the 'internet addiction syndrome' that has come up in recent years. Surfing the nets, chatting, watching porn sites has become a major socio-psychological problem. Being a parent you should know right parenting techniques to tackle this problem.

It is not good even for an adult, leave alone a child, to spend so much time continuously at the computer. Dark circles will soon be the least problems. As times goes by, he will suffer from dryness of eyes and pain in the back and neck. So, please see to it that he gets out of the habit fast.

You have to deal with this issue strictly but not to hurt the child at once, but you will have to be firm with him however much he resists. Allot a fixed time for the internet. Keep the computer in a common living area so that he cannot sneakily go to objectionable sites. See to it that he does not visit cyber cafes or bunk classes in school to go to the computer room. Rope in the help of his  teacher to get him on track. See to it that he does some sort of physical exercise for atleast half an hour in a day. Give him a  healthy, balanced and nutritious diet. Regulate his sleeping habits.   But remember what ever bad habits a child has, are to be corrected at an early stage, don't neglect your child showing the reason that you are too busy with your work.  First try these parenting techniques, if all fails then take him to a psychiatrist.
