Odunayo Ojo

A "digital generation gap" has emerged as a result of the internet's significant penetration of western households from the early 1990’s. An investigation carried out in Ireland found that 92% of families with children under the age of 18 had internet access at home, and studies carried out in the UK, USA, Korea, Serbia, Turkey and Italy revealed that 90% of school-age children had access to the internet at home and that more than half of them said they used it every day. Young children can now access the internet in a number of ways thanks to rapid technological innovation, according to Livingstone and colleagues, including through mobile phones.
