Fresh Take: Dr. Alok Kanojia on Parenting a Healthy Gamer


Listen Later

How can we tear our kids away from the increasingly addictive video games they can't get enough of? Dr. Alok Kanojia, author of the book HOW TO RAISE A HEALTHY GAMER, explains how to talk to kids about their video game addiction.

Dr. Kanojia is a former gaming addict and a Harvard-trained psychiatrist who has developed evidence-based programs that helped tens of thousands of gamers overcome their addiction.

Margaret and Dr. Kanojia discuss:

  • Signs that someone is addicted to something and why gaming can fill a void
  • How to talk to your gamer about healthy habits
  • Enforcing boundaries around gaming and dealing with resistance to those boundaries
