It is our role to guide and set boundaries for our children in the cyberworld, just as we do in the real world. Ms Lisa Guernsey, director of the Early Education Initiative at the New America Foundation, shares the three Cs of good media use for children: the content, the context, and the child:
•Be choosy about the content that your children are looking at.
•Be aware of the context and ensure that it is balanced with activities such as outdoor play.
•Be alert to the needs of the child. Some need more limitations, while others need more face time with their parents to talk through what they see on screen.
