Speaking exercise

Correction

Do you know why Steve Jobs created a series of iPhone products, but he banned his kids from using iPhones? It seems he knew something we don’t. Research shows that children under 10 years old are very vulnerable to new technologies and can get addicted easily. So, Steve Jobs was right. Children shouldn’t use iPads for more than half an hour a day and shouldn’t use smartphones for more than 2 hours a day. However, 10 to 14 year old kids can use them for a bit longer, but only for homework.
