Parents are very much worried about their children spending their time on chatting, Facebook-ing etc. But a new study has revealed that children are picking up basic social and technical skills while working online.
Researchers have found that social network sites, online games, video-sharing sites and gadgets such as mobile phones help kids remain in constant touch with their social circle.
They found that most young people almost always associate with people they already know in their offline lives through school or sports, but cell phones, instant messaging and social network sites such as MySpace and Facebook allow them to be in nearly constant touch.
Thus parents don’t want to worry anymore about these matters. They can stay cool in their home and watch their kids chatting in online…
