This guide gave me clear and practical advice on how to manage my child's screen time without making me feel guilty. I use screen time with my child and I liked how the guide emphasized promoting healthy habits instead of vilifying screen time. The tips are easy to put into practice and there are reminders about balancing technology with other important activities like reading books and going outside. I also appreciated the research and further reading; this guide really went the extra step! I feel more confident in making decisions about screen time for my child going forward. I highly recommend this guide to any parent!
