Resorting to Taweez in all affairs

Q: There is a developing trait wherein any issue arising in someone's life, people are resorting to Taweez. For example, a child regularly misbehaves or is ill, people are resorting to Taweez, believing that someone has done something to the child. A further example is where couples don't have children or to save oneself from nazar, they are told by family get a Taweez. I recognize that Taweez is permissible but is it correct to utilize it for every perceived or genuine problem with the potential that people subconsciously develop the conviction that Taweez is the remedy for all issues?
