Attention, All Mothers! Your Screen Time Directly Impacts Your Child's Health

from UNPLUG: Break Free From Digital Addiction · host Curiousaholic Media

In this episode, we cover a fascinating study that reveals how mothers' screen time can affect their own children and even increase the chance of screen time use for the children. Make sure to listen to the episode to better understand how your screen time use can impact your own child. Here's what you, the mother - the primary caregiver or future parent , will learn from this episode: Children mirror their parents, especially their mothers. The study we`re covering today shows that when mothers spend more time on their smartphones, their children not only use them earlier but are also at higher risk for excessive screen time. Mothers that are either absent from their children's lives or constantly at work led to a higher risk of excessive screentime for their child. Children tend to turn towards screens when they don`t have any real connection with their parents. Based on this study, we will be recommending better alternatives for your own smartphone use and recommend healthier habits for your child`s sake. Make sure to stick around until the end to learn about the Still face experiment and how phones are now the new version of this famous experiment!
