Easy five children infected with "Internet addiction "
The first: learning failure of children are parents, teachers, children's expectations are too single, good or bad grades as the only source of the child a sense of accomplishment at this time, once the school failure, children will have a very strong sense of failure. But online, they are likely to experience success: through any one off, you can get "return", this sense of accomplishment is very difficult in real life they experienced.
The second: a good student learning in particular have been learning a lot of good students promoted to a better school, can not maintain their rank and position, this time, they "work hard" for the purpose of generating a doubt. Teachers and parents in accordance with the logic of learning is to "find a good job on the University ----- ----- money", when they lost to "rank", "position" and the intrinsic motivation to learn, you can not teachers and parents agree that the logic, because, even without learning can also get money from their parents. So, some people began to crush the network. In fact, the cause of these children is dependent on the root causes of the network did not form a correct view of learning.
The third: a bad relationship they want to access the children escape. Many students although the results were good, but introverted, suspicious heart strong, and narrow-minded, did not encounter problems solved in time to indulge in the network, study and life seriously affected.
The fourth: the child with family disharmony divorce rate, rising crime rates and social problems such as increased social "problem families" are on the increase, these children often lack the warmth at home. But in the network, they made a little small, any requests will be many people's help. Real life and virtual social care aspects of the contrast in the humanities, it is easy for "problem families" children "hide" into the network.
Fifth: the weak self-control kids a lot of Internet addicts have this problem, he knew that this is not good, do not want this to continue, but one can not help but touch the computer. This is typical of self-control is not strong. To face many choices in life, choose what is right and what is wrong, choose what to do and what not to do. If you try to simplify the elements of life, then the most important thing in life is to choose, choose the correct rate is higher, the greater the success rate.
