How dull are your children from smartphones and tablets?

Many parents are struggling with their children's "smartphone addiction." Many children can become so glued to electronic devices that they forget to eat and sleep.

Recently, the food company Dolmio conducted an experiment during a family dinner to demonstrate the shocking reality of children's excessive addiction to electronic devices.

This child remains glued to the iPad even though a family member has been replaced by someone else (screenshot from a video clip).

Accordingly, four children aged 8 to 10 were filmed with a hidden camera while sitting at a dinner table. In the video, they appear completely oblivious to their surroundings, engrossed in video games on their iPads.

While the children were immersed in the "virtual world," the parents made changes in the family. For example, in one family, the father replaced the bouquet of roses with yellow flowers, and the family photo on the wall was replaced with a black and red painting right in front of the child.

In another family, the boy's parents and relatives were replaced by other people. One sister was replaced by a boy carrying a stick and sitting at the dinner table, while another brother was replaced by an adult.

One might think these noticeable changes would draw their attention and raise questions, but these children are so engrossed in video games that they pay no heed.

After the setup is complete, a family member will disconnect the home's Wi-Fi. At this point, the child looks up and realizes they are surrounded by strangers. Feeling confused, they immediately leave the dining table before reuniting with their family in another room.

The video is actually an advertisement released by Dolmio. With the message: "Sometimes we need to disconnect from the internet to connect (with each other)," the Australian food company's businesspeople want to warn parents about allowing their children to use technology devices too early and too often.
