About how many hours do adults spend with a phone, computer or TV?How much time do you spend on sports/physical activity?How do digital technologies affect a teenager’s psyche?Students of MT partner schools in Guria conducted a survey among the peers on these issues. Nearly half of those respondents spend more than six hours on the phone, computer, or television, and are not physically active or spend minimal time on physical activity.
Most of them are unaware of the edict of digital technology and still enjoy computer games, virtual friendships, and watching movies in their spare time.Psychologist Tamta Dolidze evaluated the results of the research and gave recommendations to the students.”A healthy lifestyle is directly related to the formation of a healthy psyche. Its not just proper nutrition or physical activity, as is often perceived.
These are moderation in everything, optimal movement mode, relaxation, proper nutrition and sleep, rational lifestyle, rejection of bad habits.Nowadays, it is unimaginable without digital technologies, but in order not to get addicted, it is necessary to maintain moderation. Under conditions of self-isolation, the time spent with the computer and TV has been rapidly increasing.
We cannot ban the use of digital technologies, but it is important to introduce a certain limit of time by parents, even in the conditions of self-isolation it is possible to do something useful said Tamar Dolidze
