Addiction to electronic devices

                                My research is based on addiction to electronic devices. The target audiences are teenagers and parents. I think it is an interesting topic as the electronic devices are well developed nowadays, more and more people using them for their daily lives. A case in point: as students, they use laptops and mobile phones for doing homework and researches. However, some of them are addicted to them, they use them for playing video games more than doing their homework. In that way, they spend most of their time on those games and ignore their study, also the addiction to electronic devices is harmful to their health. Since they spend too much time on them, their eyes might get hurt and the damage done to the eyes is perpetual. Besides, some of them focused too much on those devices and might have improper diets.  Thus, in my opinion, parents also have a duty to supervise their children. Through this research, I hope I can find some interesting sources that describe how teenagers get addicted to them step by step. Also, I want to include some of the professional information on how can teenagers quit the addiction to electronic devices in a healthy way.
