Manage episode 479881115 series 2854962
In this episode, we explore the complex relationship between digital devices and family well-being. We examine how screen time affects developing brains and physical health, from sleep disruption to attention impacts. Our CHC experts, Vidya Krishnan, MD and Olivia McDonald, PsyD, share practical strategies for establishing healthy boundaries around technology use, emphasizing the importance of age-appropriate limits and parental modeling. We also discuss why personalized approaches work better than rigid rules, considering each child's unique temperament, interests, and developmental needs. Join us for an insightful conversation about fostering digital wellness while embracing the benefits technology can bring to our lives.
