Dr Elizabeth Milovidov & Dr Michele Veldsman: Screen time guilt, digital resilience and why you should game with your kids

I'm joined on this episode by neuroscientist, parent and content creator Dr Michele Veldsman, and Dr Elizabeth Milovidov, Roblox's Head of Parental Advocacy and a digital parenting expert.Our kids are growing up in digital worlds that many of us didn't experience ourselves. And if you've ever found yourself wondering whether you're getting screen time "right", feeling overwhelmed by gaming, or worrying that your child knows far more about technology than you do, you’re not alone.On this episode, we talk about why gaming can be confusing for parents, what children are actually getting from online experiences, and why not all screen time is created equal. We also discuss how children's digital needs change as they grow, how to balance safety with independence, and why parents don't need to become experts in every app, game and platform their children use.Plus, we explore Roblox's new age-based accounts and parental controls for younger users, designed to help families navigate gaming in a way that's appropriate for different ages and stages.For more details visit Roblox’s Safety CentreThis episode is brought to you by Roblox, the immersive gaming and creation platform.If you enjoyed this episode then please leave a rating or review - and you can follow the podcast to ensure you don’t miss future episodes.
