Care and Feeding | Slate's parenting show - The “Screen Time Semantics” Edition

On this week’s episode: Zak, Elizabeth, and Greg Lavallee advise a listener whose rambunctious little one is on his third visit to the emergency room. How can our listener teach him that he can get hurt if he keeps up with the daredevil antics? They also debate how to talk to kids about screen time and how to set up healthy boundaries with devices. On Slate Plus, they lament the impending winter clothes chaos. Recommendations:Greg recommends asking your cool adult friends to give your kids compliments. Elizabeth recommends Aaron Slater, Illustrator by Andrea Beaty. Zak recommends taking yourself to the movies. The new Wes Anderson film, The French Dispatch, is a great pick-me-up. Join us on Facebook and email us at [email protected] to ask us new questions, tell us what you thought of today’s show, and give us ideas about what we should talk about in future episodes. Podcast produced by Rosemary Belson.Don't miss the member-exclusive segment on MADAF every week.
