The document discusses 4 negative side effects of excessive technology use in children: 1) Elevated exasperation, as children get frustrated more easily when asked to stop games or internet; 2) Deteriorated patience, as children have less tolerance for delays due to tech; 3) Declining writing skills, as children rely more on digital communication than handwriting; 4) Lack of physical interactivity, as children interact more online than in person. While technology is necessary, parents should monitor their children's usage to avoid these negative impacts on development.
