November 18, 2025 Kristina Fields, MS, LMFT: Breaking the Fast-Dopamine Cycle
Send us a text
What if your kid isn’t “addicted” to their phone—what if their brain is just wired for fast dopamine now? Licensed therapist Kristina Fields, MS, LMFT, breaks down the science of attention, why phone-free school policies actually work, and how small, consistent changes at home can rewire focus without declaring war on technology. She also gets real about using her own clinical playbook at home with her 3- and 5-year-old children.

November 04, 2025 Answer their Questions
Send us a text
What if the scariest question your kid asks is actually a gift? We explore how a single moment of trust—when a child chooses you over Google—can prevent an algorithm from becoming their teacher. From highly sensitive topics to messy, real-life dilemmas, we unpack a practical, compassionate way to be your child’s safest source in a world that rewards shock over wisdom.

October 21, 2025 Teach Red Flag Reporting
Send us a text
Some lessons about online safety never show up in an app store. We walk through the practice that changed our home: teaching kids to be their own filter through red flag reporting. Instead of waiting for a device to block danger, we build the habit of honest, early reporting and a parent response that starts with calm praise, not panic.
