Every parent is asking, how do we combat screen time with our kids. In this episode we chat to Melanie Hempe, a retired Nurse, who started ScreenStrong to help other parents understand the dangers of hand held devices. Melanie shares her personal experience with her oldest son's addiction to video games and how it nearly derailed his life.
She explains her journey to understanding screen addiction and outlines the principles and recommendations of ScreenStrong for reducing screen dependency and fostering healthier lifestyles for children.
The discussion also touches on the misconceptions around social media use in teenagers, the importance of setting boundaries, and the benefits of engaging in offline activities. Melanie emphasizes educating both parents and children on the dangers of screen time and advocates for proactive measures to cultivate real-life connections and balanced lifestyles.
