Abstract:
Currently, we are living in a modern developing world, where new steps are taken every day towards a more technology-based future. Technologies surround us, and they have become a significant part of our everyday lives. Even for young children, digital electronics like phones and laptops are an undeniable necessity; these devices hold great potential for transforming learning. In this world of digitalization, the Internet provides infinite knowledge and endless opportunities to children; it is also furnishing more stress and anxiety on their minds and possibly even limiting their imagination and promoting aggressiveness and cognitive deformities. Personality disorder or psychological issues faced by adults can be rooted back to mental health issues developed in their childhood. Therefore, it is vital to understand the effects of this new digital world on children's mental well-being. Research conducted in this paper was in the form of a review of available literature research to provide an overview of how digitalization influences different aspects of children's mental or psychological well-being. Based on the research, digitalization has its list of pros and cons. However, the cons can destroy children's developing young minds, and it is necessary to take some steps to address the 'side effects' of the Internet.
