#1004 Ditching Screens as a Grown Up

Screen struggles are something that every family is dealing with - and not just with the kids!  We share some small changes you can make to help you find a healthier and more balanced relationship with your phone.

Does it feel like your child knows exactly which buttons to push to trigger you? News flash:  YOU are the only one that can choose how YOU respond! Learn how to increase your competence (and confidence!) in holding personal boundaries and regulating your own emotions, and watch your relationship with your child improve in the process.

  • How to turn your phone screen to grayscale
  • Parental triggers
  • Neurodiversity
  • Setting and respecting boundaries
  • The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People, Stephen Covey
