Do your kids often complain of being bored and say, "I have nothing to do"? Over time, this can drain a parent's energy and patience, leading to more screen time as an easy solution. In today's world, children's lives are heavily influenced by screens—be it for social connections, school assignments, or video games with peers. While screens are an integral part of modern life, it's crucial to remember that limiting screen time is vital for children's social-emotional health and brain development. However, kids do need support in finding alternative activities since reaching for a screen has become their norm.
