Social media influenced how parents and children communicate, spend leisure time, acquire information, and solve problems. Children embrace the rapid pace of technology and engage their selves more in digital media.

The researchers aim to study the influences of digital media on children and parents.

The said project will assist parents in transitioning to digital parenting. The said project will help parents control children’s screen time and the role of technology plays in the family.

The researcher will develop the Digital Parenting System introducing ways how to monitor and control the social media engagement of their children. The system will though parent digital parenting matters such as behaviors they must adopt to successfully conduct digital parenting to their children.

The implementation of the system will help parents to cope up with the rapid pace of technological advancements that influence their parenting roles. By employing the system, parents can regulate their children’s social media engagement and reduce the risk and disadvantaged children get by being too indulge in social media.

Introduction
