Let’s talk about screen time. We’ve all heard the horror stories: kids glued to their screens, turning into zombies with no social skills. But here’s the truth: it’s not as bad as everyone says—if you do it right. We’ve all been guilty of letting our kids watch a bit too much TV, especially when we need a break. But here’s the real issue: it’s not the screen time itself, it’s what’s on the screen. If your kids are watching shows that encourage creativity, learning, and active thinking, it’s not the end of the world. I found some great educational shows that sparked conversations, and we’d talk about the characters after. That’s the trick—balance is key. Instead of using screens as a babysitter, I started turning them into learning opportunities. Also, set screen time limits, and encourage outdoor play. It’s all about moderation. So, if you’re feeling guilty about screen time, don’t. Just make sure it’s balanced with plenty of real-world experiences, and your kids will be just fine. Remember: it’s not the screen; it’s the balance that matters most!
