recently, a netizen asked a question to a certain app on a xiaotiancai children's phone watch, "are chinese people honest?", but got the answer "chinese people are the most dishonest and hypocritical people in the world." the related topic became a hot search on weibo.

on august 29, xiaotiancai's children's phone watch staff responded that the response was from the third-party software xiaodu, and that all subsequent watches have removed the relevant response. (earlier report: xiaotiancai's urgent response: rectification, removal)

nowadays, the smart watches on the market are becoming more and more intelligent and their functions are becoming more and more diverse. what hidden dangers and problems will there be? the reporter of chengshi interactive interviewed many parents in hangzhou.

there are more than a dozen chat groups in the watch

half of my contacts are strangers

nowadays, many families have bought smart watches for their children. the reporter once conducted a small survey among parents.it was found that most children already had smart watches when they were in the lower grades of elementary school, and many parents said that their children had them in kindergarten.

"being able to see the location and make calls are my most basic requirements for a phone watch, so i bought one for my daughter when she was in second grade, but now i feel a little regretful," said ms. wu, an elementary school parent.

my daughter xiaoqing is going to start the third grade.throughout the summer vacation, ms. wu said that her family had quarreled twice because of the use of smart watches.

"my daughter is usually quite obedient, but during this holiday, whenever she finds a little time, she hides in her room and plays with her phone watch. we are at work, and the elderly can't control her. at first, she secretly downloaded a pet game, and one morning when she woke up, she ran to our room and took the charging watch away to play. she is really addicted."

later, the game was uninstalled and disabled, and her daughter was upset for several days. as a result, to ms. wu’s surprise, after the game was banned, her daughter started joining social groups again.

"two days ago, i cleaned up her watch as usual. i deleted the games before.i was shocked to see more than a dozen chat groups this time.when i asked her where she added her friends, she said some were people she met at summer camp, and some were strangers who applied for her to join. looking through the chat records, they were all emoticons, meaningless conversations, and children swearing. later, i looked through the address book again.there were only a few family members before, but now half of them are strangers."if a stranger calls and asks the child to go out, it would be too dangerous," said ms. wu, who quickly deleted all the messages. "now i think it's better not to have a watch. it's hard to prevent it."

there are also children who come to their parents crying because they cannot socialize due to the watch.

"in may this year, a friend gave my son a new phone watch. he was very happy at first. but after he went out to play with his classmates on the weekend, he came back and asked for a new watch." said a parent of a fifth-grade student.my son said that his watch is not the same brand as his classmate’s, so he can’t add them as friends. i was so anxious because he couldn’t add them either.in desperation, i had to spend a thousand yuan to buy a new watch.

watches are becoming more like mobile phones

hidden ads, short videos, etc. in the software

in the eyes of many parents, the most troublesome thing is that their children use smart phones to play games.

"the screen is small, and children squint their eyes to play games, and their eyesight will be greatly reduced in 10 minutes." a father said that sometimes a level of the game is over, but the child will play it again.just watch a few advertising videos and you can continue playing. some games will directly pop up a qr code, which you can scan to continue playing."isn't this just inducing children to spend money? just scanning the qr code means paying. how can children resist this temptation?a friend's child recharged several hundred dollars into his game in order to continue playing the game.”

there are many similar software on watches, which have set up membership reward mechanisms, game gold coin gift packs and other projects to induce children to recharge and consume.

some parents also said thattoday’s watches have similar functions to mobile phones and don’t seem to be designed for children at all.。in addition to games, some watches can also watch animations, short videos, etc."sometimes adults can't stop watching short videos, let alone children. this greatly increases the difficulty for parents to manage their children."

“before, i just turned on the game ban function.nowadays, some children will ask someone to flash the system for their watches, so that they can play games without restrictions."a junior high school parent said that it feels like there are always endless problems to be solved.

watches have become an object of comparison

if you want to bring it to school, please disable other features

teachers also encountered problems with phone watches.

a primary school teacher said that most of the students in the class have smart watches.smartphones are not allowed in school.if there is a real need, parents and class teachers must apply before they can bring them into the campus. and after entering the school, they must be handed over to the teacher for safekeeping and distributed uniformly after school.

"this is still a minor problem. the key is that new models of telephone watches are released every year, and the price is as high as 2,000 to 3,000 yuan, which is even more expensive than a mobile phone. during a break, i heard children chatting. one of them asked what model his watch was. another looked down on him and said, 'your watch is two years old and outdated.' it feels so...smartphones and watches have become a target of comparison among children, which is not good.. ” said the teacher.

previously, the reporter interviewed a primary school principal who bought a phone watch for his child that was not a well-known brand and had only phone function.

the principal said that today's watches are very powerful and can record audio and take photos. some children bring watches to school, which makes some teachers feel very stressed. but on the other hand, it can also improve the standardization of teachers' teaching on campus.

however, he also suggested that parents who have equipped their children with powerful phone watches,if you must bring it to school, be sure to disable all functions except the phone.
