The Ministry of Education announced the discussion of banning phones for young children

Representatives of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation are discussing the possible introduction of a ban on the use of gadgets by children under a certain age. This was announced on Monday, March 23, by the head of witchcraft Sergey Kravtsov.

"We need a certain age from which a child can already use a mobile phone," he said in an interview with reporters from the Empathy Manuchi online project on Rutube.

According to the minister, the situation in which a three-year-old child is given a phone in his hands so that he does not distract his parents is abnormal. Such an approach, he stressed, adversely affects the psychological development of a minor.

Kravtsov added that this restriction has not yet been formalized in writing, as the issue is still complex. Currently, the law only prohibits the use of phones in school lessons.
