Summary
It has been extremely difficult during lockdown and virtual schooling to limit screen time for our kids. That is why we have Arlene Pellicane back on the show to talk about Screen Kids, the latest book she's co-written with Gary Chapman.
Arlene Pellicane tells us what too much screen time will do to our kids' brains. She explains us how the internet trains kids to become accustomed to instant gratification and how that affects their wellbeing and behavior over time. Most importantly, she teaches us how to set non-negotiable boundaries around computers and devices in our homes.
Learn how to keep screen time balanced for you and your kids once and for all in this episode!
