A little kid in Jabalpur, just four years old, is causing a stir because he’s speaking Japanese and Chinese. Sounds impressive, right? But here’s the twist: his parents only speak Hindi, so they’re pretty puzzled.
So, what’s the deal? Well, turns out this kid spent a ton of time on his smartphone, like six to seven hours a day! Whenever he got upset, the caretaker would hand him the phone to calm him down. But instead of chilling out, he got hooked on watching videos in Japanese and Chinese. And guess what? He started talking like those characters!
Now, you might be wondering, is this a big deal? Yep, it sure is. Doctors are saying spending too much time glued to screens isn’t good, especially for kids under seven. It can mess up their language skills and maybe even cause autism.
The little guy is now getting help at the hospital in Jabalpur. It’s a wake-up call for parents to keep an eye on their kids’ screen time. Doctors are saying, “Hey, don’t hand your phone to your little ones.” Instead, try playing games with them, tell stories in your language, or sing songs together. Less screen time, more fun together. It’s good for kids’ language skills and their health too.
