In this week's episode, we chat about our kids relationship with technology and our efforts to limit their screen time.
Our goal before we had children was to not give our kids devices to entertain them when out in public or on long car rides, as we didn't want them growing up glued to a screen.
It is the number 1 promise new parents break to themselves, but we were determined to see it through as we believed it was important for their development.
We look at strategies we implemented to keep the promise we made, as well discuss the catalyst for wanting to do this in the first place.
If you too are wanting to limit your kids screen time, a resource that helped us was a book by Dr. Kristy Goodwin. Her website can be found here https://drkristygoodwin.com/
Everyone's parenting journey is different and no one deserves to be judged for decisions they make. Parenting is hard enough as it is without the world judging you for your decisions!
