Usage of anything in excess has its own after affects. Seems genex kids are already affected by this syndrome. Now-a-days invariably all of them are getting glued to gadgets. Ironically parents proudly boast that their toddlers are glued to gadgets without realising its adverse effects.
Elders feel that it is a prestige issue to have gadgets and their kids using them. Apple CEO Steve Jobs once questioned by scribes what Apple products his kids like, he shocked them all saying they don't even know about the products. This shows how much care he has taken to keep his kids from getting addicted to the gadget mania.
Many researchers say that abuse of gadgets by kids will effect their thinking ability and no physical activity will be harmful to their future. It is sad that kids are ignoring even team sports, individual sports and are playing them on their gadgets alone. This will undermine their interpersonal skills and working in a team. It's high time parents realised the ground reality of their kids getting glued to gadgets.
