Doomscrolling wastes your time, makes you dumb and insecure, and teaches you nothing. But is that any different from Saturday morning cartoons from back in the day? Is it any different from adults checking their phones before bed? Yes and no. Dr. Hsu and Dr. Harman discuss the effects of phone screens on children, and the measures their own parents took to get them off the TV screen to be more productive.Check out Dave’s Substack for more! https://davidmhsu.substack.com/

How much should your kid’s allowance be?
$100 a month? $10 a month? 10 cents a month? Should you give your children money on a timely basis or after doing a good job at something? A time wage or a piece wage? Dr. Hsu and Dr. Harman explore different recommendations for how much you should give your kid, and how often, as well as the fact that 10 cents could get you an issue of Superman back in the day, but now you have to spend $10 instead.Check out Dave’s Substack for more! https://davidmhsu.substack.com/
