8 Screen Problems for Parents
As parents, we all want the best for our children. But in today’s digital world, encouraging screen-free play can feel like an uphill battle.

✅ Problem 2: “My kids complain when I take screens away.” 😤
It’s hard to tear kids away from their devices when they’ve become so accustomed to digital entertainment. Turning off the screen often feels like sparking a meltdown rather than encouraging play.
