Abstract: Modern technology has become an integral part of everyone’s life. The number of young users of technology is increasing rapidly day by day. This paper aims to find the key causes of modern technology that have become an obstacle in children’s overall development and find common ground to solve those challenges. A mixed-method research approach is implemented to achieve this goal. Participants are the school-going children and their parents of the children. Data is collected using questionnaires for 100 school-going children and interviews from the parents and analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively through a thematic analysis approach. The finding shows that despite some positive effects, parents and children face several challenges in development because of the harmful influence of modern technology. Finally, this study concludes and recommends a psychological and potential balance regarding the presence of technology in children’s daily lives.
