There are many instances that children have to cope with loss of parental care as a result of death
of their mothers, separation of parents, assignment of a parent to distant places, among others.
This feeling of loss is generalized as grief. Although it is easy for adults to adjust to such
circumstances, questions arise as to whether children are able to cope.
Many mothers, especially those who are new, are very much concerned about the development
of their children. Nowadays, there are so many stresses in the environment that could threaten
the development of children. The following are questions on child development that research
could help shed light on.
With the preponderance of the internet nowadays, children become more engrossed in their
laptops or desktop computers as part of their socialization activities. They now have more friends
in the internet than in real life. Teenagers, in particular, are beset by this problem. Since they
spend most of their time in front of computer screens, they were referred to as the “screenagers.”
There have been increased concern on children being unable to socialize effectively with real
persons as a result of too much “socialization” activity online. This also exposes them to grave
abuse as a result of their online ventures.
Is there a relationship between the frequency and duration of online activity among
children and study time?
Is there relationship between age and the type of online material visited by children?
How do children respond to strangers requesting details about them?
Is there a relationship between children’s irritability and intensity of computer use?
What factors influence the time devoted by children to online activity?
