Feel like you’re constantly battling your kid over screen time?

Wondering if their love of Roblox, TikTok, or skincare influencers is harmless—or harmful?

Overwhelmed by all the fear-based headlines about what tech is doing to your kid’s brain?

Same. That’s why this week’s episode is a must-listen.

Dr. Whitney sits down with Erin Walsh—social scientist, parenting expert, and author of It’s Their World: Teens, Screens, and the Science of Adolescence—to dig into what’s really going on with our kids and their screens. Spoiler: It’s not as simple as “just take the phone away.” But it’s also not a free-for-all.

Erin breaks down the science of the developing adolescent brain, the real risks of screen time (especially around body image), and what we actually need to be focusing on as parents. This conversation will leave you feeling smarter, calmer, and better equipped to make the best decisions for your unique kid—without shame or overwhelm. See the full show notes here.
