Using a computer every day can have more negative than positive effects on young children.Do you agree or disagree?

Early childhood computer use is common today, and its effects on young children’s physical and psychological development are much debated. Many think this daily use presents more downsides than merits, which is a valid idea.
This regular use can enable young children to develop basic computer skills even before school, giving them a head start in the digital world because they are at a developmental stage where learning is optimal and unhindered by the distractions of the real world. This might also help a child's cognitive development as learning how to use the keyboard, mouse, and various features of the operating system can foster cognitive functions, which is an advantage, given that, due to the time constraints of modern parents, young children rarely have the chance to improve their mental abilities with dedicated parental involvement.
However, children who consistently sit in front of a computer will be conditioned to lead sedentary lifestyles from an early age. Their minds are highly impressionable, especially at the age of six to eight, so whatever they do repeatedly will shape them. Far worse is the addictive nature of computers, meaning daily use is likely to become hourly use at such an age. This is because computers seem exciting in the early stages of childhood, and even the most basic applications, such as Microsoft Word, are perceived as games. This will likely result in parents finding that their six-year-old has minimal contact with them and, later in life, with their peers, which produces numerous psychological problems.
These discussions suggest that although regular computer use in early childhood might promote basic computer skills in the early years of education and improve mental capacity in the absence of modern parents, its adverse effects are alarming. This tendency will condition young children to adopt sedentary lifestyles early on and discourage them from being social. Therefore, we must take steps to mitigate the adverse effects of this trend.
