Can the

  mobile phone become "out of control" as soon as the child is in the hands of the child

  During the summer vacation, the problem of minors surfing the Internet has become a “hot” topic in the family.

The Shuaishuai family in Beijing often has family conflicts due to surfing the Internet.

"Most of the troubles come from this every day. As soon as the mobile phone is in the hands of the child, it is'out of control'. Many parents have the same distress as me." The handsome mother, Ms. Shen, was rather helpless.

During the holidays, many children keep their mobile phones and computers in their hands. The “youth mode” that is turned on can be easily hacked by children, and there is no guarantee that minors will browse healthy and positive content.

  China Youth Daily and China Youth Daily reporters found that most of the current online platforms have enabled the "youth mode" and achieved positive results. However, some online platforms have inconspicuous access to the "youth mode" and can be switched at will. They can still be turned on. Problems such as browsing bad content urgently need to be addressed in a targeted manner by all parties in the society.

"Youth Mode" can't just talk about it

  According to a survey by a reporter from China Youth Daily and China Youth Daily, after entering the "youth mode", most social apps do not set limits on the duration and time period of the mode, but video apps will automatically turn on the time lock, and the general duration is 40 Minutes, which corresponds to a reasonable length of continuous eye use.

If the single-day use time exceeds the trigger time, you need to enter the password again to continue using it.

Every day from 22:00 to 6:00 the next day is the time period for teenagers to disable the App, which helps to ensure that teenagers get at least 8 hours of sleep a day.

  Although some short video platforms default to open the time lock for 40 minutes, you can choose to turn off the time lock after entering the password, or you can modify the time lock time. The maximum time is 120 minutes.

  In the "youth mode" of gaming applications, some platforms stipulate that teenagers can play games for no more than 1.5 hours a day, and during legal holidays, the requirement cannot exceed 3 hours.

  Ms. Shen said that the "youth mode" of many online platforms can be selected at will, there is no compulsory, and even just click "skip".

Some game time can choose to be extended, which does not play a restrictive role.

  Yang Zhongkai, a lawyer at Tianjin Junhui Law Firm, believes that at present, the "youth model" cannot completely solve the risks that minors face online.

The game platform is pursuing profit, and some video apps are not suitable for children to browse and are easily addicted.

With the progress of the times, minors are good at using smartphones and are also very familiar with Internet technology. Many teenagers are capable of cracking the "teenage model".

There are also parents who are still lacking in the awareness of the "teenage model". Many parents neglect their children's use of the Internet because of their busy work. In particular, left-behind children lack parental restraint, which should be taken seriously.

It is better to block the "indigenous people" of minors online

  The 2020 "Report on Internet Utilization by Minors in China" pointed out that the Internet penetration rate of minors has reached 99.2%, which is significantly higher than the overall Internet penetration rate in my country (64.5%).

The age at which minors first touched the Internet continues to drop. The proportion of people who are 10 years old and younger who start to touch the Internet has reached 78%.

The characteristics of the "indigenous people" of the minor network become more and more obvious.

  Dr. Lu Xiaohua, deputy director of the Psychological Research Center of Beijing Jiaotong University, said that the key to solving the problem of children's Internet addiction lies in the family.

It is not realistic to simply require all software to pass real-name authentication and force the "youth mode" to be turned on.

"You can't treat the Internet and mobile phones as scourges. The more you block them, the higher the walls you build and the worse the effect. On the contrary, the key is to channel them."

  Lu Xiaohua said: "For a while, my son played a lot on mobile phones. Once I asked him, how do you arrange your time for this day? How long do you spend practicing calligraphy, arranging, playing ball, and games every day? This Upon asking, he realized that the game time was a little too much, and then made adjustments."

  "A good parent-child relationship is the prerequisite for parents to start adolescent management." Lu Xiaohua said, "Children are in puberty, and the attitude of parents at this time is very important. Instead of shouting out reprimands, it is better to patiently guide and accompany them. Parents must take care of it. To achieve a kind of connection function, expand the child's external connection channels, and let the child get rid of the state of being addicted to mobile games. For example, take the child to play more games, accompany the child to watch exhibitions, walks, and parents should allocate their time selectively To the child."

Improving network literacy is the responsibility of the whole society

  On June 1, the newly revised Law on the Protection of Minors was formally implemented.

It stipulates that online game, online live broadcast, online audio and video, online social networking and other network service providers should set up corresponding time management, authority management, consumption management and other functions for minors to use their services.

  "The concept of'Internet literacy' was written into the Law on the Protection of Minors for the first time, clearly stipulating that the state, society, schools and families should strengthen the publicity and education of internet literacy for minors." said Dr. Li Aimin, School of Culture and Media, Central University of Finance and Economics. "The law sets clear responsibilities and sets up a special chapter on network protection, which reflects the great importance of the new era on the protection of minors on the Internet, and emphasizes the establishment of a multi-dimensional and all-round network protection system for minors."

  Li Aimin said that the online protection of minors is a systematic project, and it is difficult to achieve results with one organization or several groups alone. Only the government, enterprises, families, and even the whole society regard the healthy growth of minors as their unshirkable responsibility. We can work together to create a positive and positive network atmosphere that is conducive to the healthy growth and development of minors.

The government does a good job of legislation and supervision and law enforcement. Internet companies must not only focus on commercial interests, but also shoulder their social responsibilities. Families, especially guardians, must perform their duties well, and all parties in society must take the initiative to improve their Internet literacy and use them well. Internet habits affect and educate minors to use the Internet in an active and healthy manner.

  "Playing is a child's nature. Trying and exploring unknown areas is in line with the characteristics of children's physical and mental growth. For platform companies, they must abide by the relevant provisions of the Juvenile Protection Law and perform their duties in the technical aspects." Lu Xiao Hua said.
