Are screen time battles with your tween or teen leaving you drained, frustrated, and second-guessing yourself as a single parent?

If you’ve ever felt like screens have taken over your home, you’re not alone. Single parents often feel stuck between wanting to set limits and needing the peace that screens provide. The good news? You don’t need to choose between chaos and total restriction—you can create balance that actually works for your family.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • A simple 5-minute daily check-in that builds connection before correction
  • The 80/20 boundary rule that reduces arguments and gives kids ownership of their screen use
  • How modeling small, visible changes in your own tech habits can inspire your kids to reset theirs too
