Inani Elifanele Lesikhathi Sekhompyutha
Ezweni elihlala ubusuku ngabunye phambi kwethelevishini, kubonakala kumangaza nje ukuthi abantu abaningi ngokwengeziwe bathola ukuheha kwesikrini sekhompyutha kwesinye isikhathi kubaluleke kakhulu. Akungabazeki ukuthi izingane zenza njengoba kwenza abazali bazo. Bayakujabulela ukuhlola umhlaba omkhulu we-Intanethi. Bajabule ukuthola lowo mdlalo omusha wekhompyutha. Kepha, singakanani isikhathi phambi kwesikrini sekhompyutha okuyisikhathi esifanele?
Akungabazeki ukuthi kuzoba nabantu abaningi abaphuma bathi izingane zichitha isikhathi esiningi kakhulu phambi kwekhompyutha. Bangase bagcine besitshela ukuthi amehlo abo azobuyela emuva noma okuthile. Akunandaba ukuthi bazothini, siyazi manje ukuthi kubalulekile ukunciphisa isikhathi izingane ezisisebenzisa ikhompyutha. Siyakwazi lokhu ngoba siyazi ukuthi kunengqondo ukuthi izingane ezidlala kukhompyutha zikhulule ngokweqile izici zempilo kanye nezinto zomdlalo wokuzenzisa ezifundisa zona kancane.
Njengabazali, kukithina ukukhawulela okwenziwa yingane. Kukithina ukubanikeza okuthile okufanele bakwenze ngenkathi bekuwebhu futhi. Kulokhu, sisho ukuthi wena, Mama noma ubaba, udinga ukuzibophezela ekwazini ukuthi yimiphi imidlalo abayidlalayo nokuthi yimaphi amawebhusayithi abahlela ukuwavakashela. Nansi indlela enhle yokukhawulela lokho abakwenzayo empeleni.
Esikhundleni sokubavumela ukuthi bashibilike futhi bagcine kwiwebhusayithi ethile embi laphaya, qhubeka ubalande umdlalo noma emibili. Imidlalo etholakala kuwebhu iyajabulisa, kepha lapho umzali enza ukukhetha, angaba mnandi futhi afundise ngasikhathi sinye. Ingabe ingane yakho idinga Usizo lwezibalo? Ngemuva kwalokho qhubeka ubanikeze umdlalo wezibalo omnandi ofundisa abakudingayo ukuze kube lula ukuzwana nenhlonipho. Lokhu kungenziwa ezifundweni eziningi ezifana nesipelingi, isayensi, umlando nolimi. Ngokubanika umdlalo wekhompyutha onjengalena, bangenza isikhathi sabo sekhompyutha, sikufanele emehlweni akho.
Ungamangala ukuthi bangaki abazali abamane bathi, ‘Yebo, ungadlala kwi-intanethi.’ Abaningi babo abazi ukuthi ingane yabo yenzani ingasaphathwa eyokuthi idlala umdlalo wokufundisa! Yebo kunjalo! Iningi lezingane lizothola futhi lidlale umdlalo ozithandayo ngemibala ekhanyayo nemidwebo. Lokho akusho ukuthi ngeke bayithande imidlalo enganikeli ngale nto. Kepha, amawebhusayithi abajwayele ukuwavakashela agcwele izikhangiso ezibakhanga. Umsebenzi wakho ukuwakhomba endaweni efanele.
Ngakho-ke, buyela embuzweni wethu; singakanani isikhathi esifanele sesikhathi sekhompyutha yengane yakho? Yebo, ngaphakathi kwalowo mbuzo kukhona igama, ‘lakho’ futhi lokho kusho ukuthi kungokubona kwakho ukuthi kufanele ucabangele isidingo sabo. Linganisa usuku lwabo ngokomzimba, ngokomzwelo, ukuzenzisa kanye nazo zonke ezinye izinto ezibalulekile zemfundo bese ufaka ngesikhathi esincane sokudlala ikhompyutha. Kholwa noma ungakukholwa, bakha amakhono abazowadinga kamuva empilweni.
