Want to read this book. But you must. The boomer generation “ran free” childhoods, we weren’t allowed to watch TV on school nights, only read for pleasure. But today’s 8 to 25 yo and higher have up to 10 HOURS a day of combined screen time. Their screens take the place of interactions person to person while imagination wilts while being entertained by unknown sources.

It’s honestly scary how phones have taken control of our lives, and in many ways we don’t even notice it. This book does a great job of explaining why we need to let kids be kids again. Let them explore, use their imagination and run around outside instead of just being glued to an interactive computer screen. It also provides many basic solutions in which parents can help steer their children in the right direction. Highly recommend.
