2 . It's been a common problem that most of popular kids' apps contain some form of marketing. App developers and platforms make more money when more ads are viewed or clicked. Children, with their weaker self-control, are a prime target. Some developers use manipulative(操纵性的)approaches like showing a fancy present, which takes the children to an ad when clicked.
Examine before downloading apps. Your children can't download apps without you entering your password, so you can review apps before they are downloaded.
Teach your kids to look for help. When ads pop up inside apps, make sure your kids don't play or download the advertised game immediately.
Make complaint if necessary. Even some school-issued apps pressure families to purchase accounts. If this happens to you, complain to your school district.
Raising kids in the Internet age means teaching them to recognize when someone is trying to sell them new things or new ideas, from toys to misinformation.
A.Ask your children often. |
B.Ask about your kid' preferences |
C.They have to understand the tricks of in-app advertising. |
D.With proper guidance, kids can grow up to be critical digital thinkers. |
E.Instead, they should be taught to be alert, and turn to adults for advice |
F.Then you can read reviews on websites or check-the reviews in the app store |
G.Unfortunately, there are no laws restricting how many ads can pop up in children's apps |

After Henry delivered all thenewspapers, he pedaled fast to The Gazette offices by 8: 30. The chief editorhad something important to tell him. He parked his bike and bounded up twonights of stairs to the chief editor's door.
Mr. Trotta greeted him."About those papers," he paused, "no good way to deliver badnews," Henry’s smile faded. "Were closing shop Saturday. Advertisingis down. Television is how people get their news today, Mr. Trotta shrugged, "You won't have to get up early on weekends." "No," said Henry, "but I like waking up early and meeting people on my route. It'ssad People won't get their neighborhood news any more.”
As Henry rode past the familiar houses, he saw Mr Grady on his porch (门廊) holding a broom (扫把). "Mr. Grady, wait," Henry called, setting down his bike. He led Mr. Grady to a chair and took the broom. In minutes, the porch was clean. "Now, Mr, Grady, anytime you have chores (家务) call me." They sat for a while asMr. Grady recalled how happy he’d been moving his family to 26 Maple. He sounded lonely.
A week after closing, Henry wondered if his customers missed The Gazette as much as he did. He thought of a way to find out.
He started out on his oldroute with a notebook. First stop: Mr, Jonas, 17 Oak. When Henry asked him about the paper, Mr. Jonas answered, "I sure liked reading the week'shappenings. By the way, I have a pile of old comics from The Gazette. Think someone would want them?"
“I’ll ask around." Henry made a note in his notebook.
He stopped at Mrs. Burke's, 27 Maple. She opened the door holding two babies. Her other two kids held on toher legs. Henry stared. "You could use a babysitter." "Definitely. I meant to put an ad in The Gazette, but....Know any neighbors with experience?”
Mr Simon was next door, carrying his violin out to his car. "Hey, Henry. My band is having aconcert in the park next Friday. Tell all your friends.”
