The Tech Diet for Parents
Let’s face it, most parents have a love-hate relationship with technology. It can make so many aspects of parenting a breeze, and others a living nightmare. And with parents feeling information in this field is all just statistics and research, who has time figure out real-life strategies that actually work?
For nearly a decade, psychologist Brad Marshall has been helping families find a balance between healthy screen time and problematic overuse. Real strategies, with concrete examples. These strategies resonate with parents. So much so, famed publishing house HarperCollins asked Brad to spin this very seminar into his recently released book “The Tech Diet for your Child and Teen”.
