In this episode, I sit down with Emily Cherkin, otherwise known as The Screentime Consultant. As a former middle school English teacher and parent of two, Emily witnessed the simultaneous rise of technology use for school, and
smartphone and social media use for kids. Today, she consults with parents, offers school presentations and professional development trainings, and writes about parenting and screentime to bring her tech-intentional approach to as many people as possible. Emily's book "The Screentime Solution: A Judgment-Free Guide to Becoming a Tech-Intentional Family" is an Amazon bestseller and available everywhere books are sold.
This episode is a MUST LISTEN for parents, but in all honesty...helpful for us all, parent or not. We go into detail about the following:
- Why are screens and phones so addictive, especially for children and teens?
- Is there a one-size-fits-all solution for families?
- Is this a kid problem or an adult problem?
- What critical skills are being compromised in children today?
- Are children and teens being stunted socially?
- Do parental controls work and are they a good idea?
- Are children safer with a phone or smart watch?
- What age is a good age for a phone?
- Are phones interfering with problem-solving?
- How can parents help their teenage children with common concerns like social media and how it is affecting their mental/emotional health?
- What can parents do when their children come across inappropriate content?
- How can parents express concerns about tech and screen use in schools?
- How can parents have better conversations with their kids and teens and implement boundaries?
- How can parents mitigate screentime conflict and meltdowns?
