Unlike any previous generation, children's excessive screen use today at home and at school impacts mental health and family relationships. Parents have concerns about the amount of time children spend on devices and want to do better. They're just not sure what to do or where to start. \u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003eThe Screentime Solution\u003c\/i\u003e, Emily teaches parents to become \"tech-intentional\" using screen-based technologies to enhance, nurture, and align with family values while avoiding, delaying, or limiting screentime that interferes with healthy mental, physical, cognitive, and emotional development. \u003cbr\u003e With humor, empathy, and experience, Emily invites parents to \u003cbr\u003e - become tech-intentional, without feeling judged, shamed, or blamed; \u003cbr\u003e - implement her research-supported, developmentally appropriate tools to find screentime balance; and \u003cbr\u003e - build a movement around tech-intentionality (this is good for \u003ci\u003eeveryone\u003c\/i\u003e--children and adults alike). \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e The Screentime Solution \u003c\/i\u003ewill remain useful even as technology changes because being tech-intentional is an approach that can--and should--remain a constant.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Emily Cherkin, M.Ed., The Screentime Consultant, is a nationally recognized consultant who takes a tech-intentional approach to addressing screentime challenges.
