沒空照看孩子就讓手機(jī)陪孩子玩?我們身邊這樣的情況還真不少見。好像智能手機(jī)和平板電腦除了常規(guī)的網(wǎng)絡(luò)電子功能以外,還多了一個功能,就是當(dāng)“保姆”。
When parents are too busy to spend time with their kids, they give them a smartphone or a tablet. All kinds of online games will entertain their kids and be their good friend. And once the children are addicted to these games, they will leave their parents alone. In this case, the smartphone or tablet is used as a virtual nanny, thus called smartphone nanny.
當(dāng)父母忙碌而無暇陪伴孩子時,他們就將智能手機(jī)或平板電腦交給孩子玩。手機(jī)和平板里的各類游戲會讓孩子找到樂趣,并且成為孩子的好朋友。一旦孩子對這些游戲上了癮,就不會再去煩他們的父母了。這種情況下,父母塞到孩子手中的智能手機(jī)或平板電腦其實(shí)就是一個虛擬的保姆,該現(xiàn)象也由此被稱之為“手機(jī)保姆”。
