Children and Screen Time: One Parent’s Guiding Questions
Children of all ages are increasingly using technology both in and out of the classroom, making screen time a hot topic for parents and teachers. A few recent studies show that too much screen time has many negative effects, including obesity, irregular sleep patterns, and social/behavioral issues.
