Manage episode 455111242 series 2568118
Is your approach to restricting electronics actually fostering sneaky behavior in your child? What if instead of wrestling over electronics, we focused on fostering genuine moments of togetherness? In today’s episode, we venture into the intricate relationship our kids have with their devices and discover practical, connective ways to navigate this modern challenge.
I’ll dive into the ever-present issue of electronics in our children's lives, and contrary to popular advice, I argue against outright bans and restrictions. Instead, I emphasize connection as the core solution.
How can we foster a healthier relationship with electronics without making them the forbidden fruit? How can we create meaningful interactions that make gadgets less appealing? Join me as I explore this nuanced approach and provide you with actionable strategies to integrate connection over control in your daily lives.
In this Episode:
- Importance of modeling good electronic habits
- Offering opportunities for connection
