If you’re constantly worrying about how much time your ‘screenager’ is spending online, I can assure you - you’re not alone. If screen time always ends in scream time in your house, it’s time to find a better way.
The last couple of years has really changed the game for our kids and teens; home schooling, lockdowns and disruption of routine has normalised increased screen time we are struggling to reduce.
The constant loop of nagging, meltdowns and techno-tantrums we are faced with when we try to make our kids disconnect can have a significant impact on the family dynamic, not to mention your relationship and communication line with your kids and teens.
We have to shift dialogue beyond simply ‘how much’ time our kids spend online. Having a technology plan for your family involves much more than simply setting screen time limits.
Whether we love it, or loathe it, technology is here to stay and the key to positive change is helping our kids and teens cultivate healthy digital habits.
This masterclass will arm you and your kids with research-based, yet realistic advice about how to set up your family’s digital guardrails. It’s time to put an end to tech-time resulting in tears and tantrums.
In this 60-minute masterclass that you’ll watch (and can pause and discuss) WITH your child/children
you’ll explore:
- Why focusing exclusively on how much screen time your kids have each day is NOT the most important metric when it comes to their digital wellbeing (and what you should be focusing on instead);
- A simple formula to calculate healthy time limits (that works for kids and teens of all ages)
- Essential digital borders and boundaries to protect kids’ vision, hearing, activity levels, posture, sleep, focus and mental wellbeing; and
- The digital guardrails your family will establish to ensure that everyone thrives online.
