If you've ever felt like screens are slowly taking over your home… you're not imagining it. In today's world, kids are growing up surrounded by constant stimulation, easy access to technology, and devices designed to capture their attention. And while screens aren't inherently bad, without clear boundaries they can quietly shape our kids' habits, emotions, and even their relationships. P.S. If you haven't rated and reviewed Don't Burn Your Own House Down yet on Amazon and GoodReads, would you mind taking a second to do so?! It is a book so dear to my heart and I love seeing the feedback from all of you!! Thank you x 1000! In this episode, I'm sharing a few of the non-negotiable screen time rules we use in our home to help our kids stay present, emotionally regulated, and connected to real life. This episode connects directly to a chapter in my book, Don't Burn Your Own House Down, called "More Scrolling, More Problems." In that chapter, I talk about how constant phone use doesn't just impact our kids, it impacts our marriages, our attention, and our ability to actually connect with the people in front of us. Because the truth is, what we model in our homes becomes the culture our kids grow up in. If we want more presence, more connection, and healthier relationships… it starts with what we allow to take our attention.
