| Popis | In the performed research, we dealt with the use of technologies by seven-year-old children, then how children and their parents perceived the technologies, the role of technologies in the family context, and what rules parents gave to children for the use of technologies. For this purpose, we visited ten families, where children use technologies regularly. We interviewed parents, the seven-year-old child, as well as their siblings. Transcribed interviews were analyzed with thematic analysis. We identified several roles, media play in families: educational, practical and socializing role, additionally technologies are the opportunity to fill the spare moments of children, the possibility of parents to put children aside with technologies or technologies to watch over them, and finally the possibility of contact between members of the family through technologies, or the ability to control and protect children using technologies. We describe the strategies of the parents by which they manage the use of media by children. We introduce the explicit and implicit rules managing the use of technology by young children in families, and we state how these rules are connected, respectively, and inserted into the everyday life of families. |
