PRACTICAL STRATEGIES TO HELP TAKE BACK CONTROL OVER YOUR CHILDREN'S SCREEN TIME, AND CHANGE FAMILY LIFE FOR THE BETTER

Are screens a constant source of friction in your house? Do you worry about the amount of time your children spend on phones, pcs, tablets or watching tv? And what they're watching or doing? You're not alone.

For many parents screen time is a real cause for concern, leaving them feeling powerless and confused. They can see time spent in front of a screen often results in negative behaviour and an unwillingness to do other activities such as sports, playing with friends in the real world or homework, but are at a loss as to what to do.

In Calmer Easier Happier Screen Time, expert author Noël Janis-Norton breaks the problem down, and offers a much needed solution. Adapting her proven parenting strategies to this complex area, she uses the calmer, easier, happier techniques to help parents wean their children away from their electronic devices, to limit and guide their screen time in a positive way and finally, to get back in charge.
