Manage episode 493305303 series 3660808
In this episode, Dr. Mitnaul tackles one of the most crucial conversations for today’s parents, the hidden myths about screens and kids that quietly chip away at your influence and your child’s well-being. He unpacks three common lies many well-meaning parents believe, and why they’re more damaging than you realize. You’ll discover why “standing out” can actually help your child thrive, how much influence you really have (hint: it’s more than you think), and why early screen exposure doesn’t automatically create digital wisdom. Plus, Dr. Mitnaul shares a powerful visual that will forever shift how you think about screen time and reveals the brain science behind it all. This isn’t just about setting limits, it’s about reclaiming your confidence and leading your family with clarity.
