EP.2 - Managing Screen Time and Setting Healthy Boundaries

Episode 2 Description — Parent Street Podcast Episode 2 of SDGT Entertainment’s Parent Street Podcast dives into one of the biggest challenges modern parents face: managing screen time in a world where digital devices are everywhere. In this episode, we explore how to set healthy, realistic boundaries without hovering, how to balance recreational and educational screen use, and how to recognize when technology may be affecting your child’s mood, sleep, or self‑esteem. We break down the difference between passive scrolling and interactive play, explain why not all screen time is created equal, and share age‑appropriate daily limits recommended by child‑development experts. You’ll also learn how long before bedtime kids should unplug, how to use parental controls as supportive tools rather than surveillance, and how to turn gaming into a positive family bonding experience instead of a point of conflict. Whether you’re navigating meltdowns when it’s time to turn the screen off, trying to build healthier routines, or simply wanting more peace around technology in your home, this episode gives you practical, compassionate guidance to help your child thrive on and off the screen.
