Children Growing Up to Bad Posture Using Smart Devices Children with poor posture are prone to develop: headaches, neck pain, scoliosis, asthma and shortness of breath, lack of balance & coordination. Severe cases can lead to kyphosis, lordosis, scoliosis, spine infections and spine tumors. Parents should be made more aware of the importance of observing correct posture among children.

Mental Health Effects of Poor Posture The Gen Z has a constantly increasing number of diagnosed depression and other mental health problems. This results in lack of confidence, fatigue and anxiety. These conditions can be relieved and improved with proper posture.
