Screen time effects on teenage brains

Please watch this PBS newshour segment. It’s only 7.5 minutes long. You can make it to the end! Summer is just about here. Do yourself and your kids a favor and get ahead of the game. Make a plan now for what your kids (and you) will be doing this summer. No one needs to spend beautiful summer days sitting in front of a screen. Decide, as a family, what is a reasonable compromise for digital technology over the summer. Decide what the consequences will be for not following through on the agreement. And stick to it. You can do it and you and your kids will be better off for it.
