The responsibility for children’s Internet addiction lies mostly with the family Nowadays, Internet addiction among teenagers seems to be more and more common. How to go about quitting Internet addiction has become a big headache for parents, schools and psychologists. Internet addiction is a psychological problem, but psychologists often have little success in giving psychological treatment to Internet-addicted teenagers. I think there are two main reasons for this: firstly, children with Internet addiction do not have a strong desire to seek help. They know that Internet addiction is bad, but they are more permissive about their behavior. Seeing a psychiatrist is mostly at the parents’ behest. The premise of psychotherapy is that visitors take the initiative to seek treatment, and the initiative to seek treatment is the driving force behind the treatment. There is no motivation, how can the treatment move forward? Secondly, the root cause of Internet addiction often lies in the family. To eliminate children’s Internet addiction without solving family problems is like “cutting the grass without removing the roots, the spring breeze blows again”. The influence of the family on the child is obvious. The parent-child relationship is the foundation of all human relationships. To use an inappropriate example, the family is like a mold, and the kind of mold you have will produce the kind of child you have. This mold has an effect on the child’s personality, defensive style, emotions, behavior, etc. The way the child behaves is to fit into this mold. Therefore, the child’s behavior is passive. Even if the child’s behavior changes with outside intervention, once back in the family mold, the child reverts back to the previously adapted behavioral style. This is the reason why our treatment of children does not work or does not last. This is true of children with Internet addiction, and it is also true of treatment for other behavioral problems in adolescents. This is where I come up with my theory of family-centered therapy. The members of the family, the members’ personalities, their ways of being in the world, and the relationships between the members make up the type of mold. In the mold, parents play the biggest role, followed by grandparents or grandma and grandpa. Each family situation is different and plays a different role. It is this environment that is influencing the growth and development of the child. The principle that a child adheres to while growing up is to seek happiness and avoid harm. Therefore, it is easy to understand some of the problems that arise in children including internet addiction. In fact, how is this not true of all our behaviors? Children love to cry because they can get care and get what they want by crying at home, children don’t love to cry because it is no longer meaningful to cry in the family, and they will be praised by their parents if they don’t cry, some children don’t love to socialize because they are afraid that others will know that they are a single-parent family, and there is a child who is constantly in trouble because of which his father who is always out of the house doing business comes back to take care of himself. And there are many more such examples. We say that all symptoms and all forms of behavior have their own significance. In that case, the child’s addiction to the Internet also has its own meaning. As we said earlier, the child’s behavior is passively adapting to the family’s mold, so Internet addiction is also an adaptive behavior. To put it another way, the family pushes the child towards Internet addiction. So, what kind of family is likely to push children into Internet addiction? First, the sparse and management type of family. Parents are busy with their own business and don’t know much about their children, giving them too much time and space. Secondly, the family with bad relationship. In such a family, the child’s feelings are often ignored, on the other hand, the child does not have a sense of security, affecting real-life relationships and deepening network addiction. Single-parent families. iv. Overly serious families. Family atmosphere is not active, parents and children are like teachers and students, officers and soldiers, the lack of emotional communication, only constant demands, orders and obedience. The network is just the opposite, absolute obedience to your requirements and will not hurt you. In fact, the above is only a simple categorization of several, there are many specific reasons for the formation of Internet addiction. Such as partners are online games will appear herd mentality and addicted to the network, some because of the network to become a sought-after master and addicted to the network, there are online games produced more and more beautiful and exciting is also one of the reasons for people addicted to the network. In short, addiction to the Internet fulfills a psychological need. Although, there are a lot of direct causes leading to Internet addiction do not lie in the family, but from fondness to addiction, the family also has the responsibility of failing to notice. If we detect it in time, it is completely possible to avoid the emergence of addiction. The least desirable and most common scenario after a child develops an Internet addiction is that the parents jump out of their skin and start to violently restrict the child’s behavior, interfere with the child’s activities, and go to various Internet cafes like plainclothes to search for the child’s whereabouts. In the end, the mother and child are not close to each other, and the father and son are at odds with each other. The child is more and more lonely and more and more depressed, the dependence on the network is also more and more intense.
