Abstract

The development of digital technology has led to an increasing use of gadgets among early childhood in daily life. This condition brings both positive and negative impacts on child development, thus requiring active parental involvement in supervision. This study aims to examine the role of parents in controlling gadget use in relation to the formation of early childhood character through a literature review approach. The method used is qualitative with a literature study design, by analyzing various relevant sources such as books and scientific journals. The findings show that parents play an essential role in controlling gadget use through time limitation, accompaniment, content selection, and the implementation of family rules. Effective control contributes to the development of children’s character, particularly in discipline, responsibility, and empathy. Therefore, parental involvement is a key factor in directing gadget use to positively support early childhood character development.
