  • Title: Are pediatric nurses advocating for "Generation M2"? The impact of technology use on children.
    Author: Goldschmidt K.
    Journal: J Pediatr Nurs; 2010 Aug; 25(4):304-6. PubMed ID: 20620813.
    Abstract:
    In 2001, the AAP wrote guidelines for practitioners to instruct families on safe technology use (AAP, 2001). In 2010, children are living in an environment where they are exposed to a multitude of media regardless of age, ethnicity, parental income, or education level (Vandewater et al., 2007, p. e1013). Exposure to an environment saturated by multimedia is affecting the health of children. What role does the pediatric nurse assume in offering guidance to children and their families regarding safe use of multimedia? The time is now for pediatric nurses to lead the way by role modeling, educating, and advocating for safe multimedia use for all children.
