Electronics Unplugged: Navigating the Challenges with Michael Jacobus |218
Are you concerned with your kids and how much time they spend on electronics?
“It’s the brain chemistry of the not fully matured human that these companies are going after and parents are just overwhelmed…” – Michael
On this week’s episode Melissa chats with returning guest Michael Jacobus – they delve deeper into the conversation, and explore the profound impact gaming addiction, excessive social media use, and the constant barrage of music and video streaming can have on children and families.
They discuss the potential harm that these addictions can cause over time, from decreased social interaction to mental health challenges. However, they also highlight the importance of parental involvement and support in helping young individuals navigate these challenges and find a healthy balance.
By actively engaging with children, setting boundaries, and promoting alternative activities, families can work together to address these issues and foster a more balanced and fulfilling lifestyle for all. Remember, it’s never too late to start a conversation and make positive changes for the well-being of your loved ones.
