THE EVANS LIFE: A Remarkable Adventure

Children, Screens, and Dopamine


Listen Later

There is a "kick" we all get when we're on our screens. It's because of a neurotransmitter called "dopamine". It plays a big role in how we feel pleasure.

But too much dopamine can negatively affect a child's developing brain, and make it difficult for them to regulate behavior.

In this episode, Bob and Diane talk with Drs. Diane Liu and Stan Brewer, pediatricians and pediatric psychiatrist about Children, Screens, and Dopamine.
