Published: Sept. 10, 2024, 9:05 a.m.

Is your child constantly glued to their screen? Do you feel torn between setting strict boundaries and fostering trust? In today\u2019s world, technology is everywhere, and balancing it with real-life connection can feel overwhelming. How do we guide our kids through it without falling into the trap of punishments and control?


In this episode, I talk with Melissa, a fellow mom, about the daily challenges of managing her daughters' screen time and maintaining a healthy relationship with them. I share with her the tricky balance between allowing technology in our kids\u2019 lives and ensuring they are still grounded in the real world. We also tackle the challenges of not letting electronics become the villain in every sibling dispute and why letting our kids learn from their own screen habits can be more powerful than strict rules.\xa0

  • How to set limits without control
  • Sibling fights: When the phone isn\u2019t the issue
