On average, children between the ages of 8 and 12 in the U.S. spend up to six hours a day on screens. For teens, that number jumps to upwards of nine hours. Excessive use of digital devices — and the content they are engaging with — can have harmful effects on a young person’s well-being. Higher daily screen time is associated with increased symptoms of anxiety and depression.
It’s not just adolescents and teens who are at risk. Too much screen time can negatively impact the development of young children, affecting their physical and mental health and social-emotional well-being.
How can parents and caregivers help young people thrive in an online world? The key is understanding the risks and establishing healthy digital habits from the start.
On Thursday, July 31, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. ET, join Culture Reframed for an eye-opening conversation with digital wellness experts, Julia Storm and Adrienne Principe. Moderated by Dr. Mandy Sanchez, the free webinar will highlight the role of screens on the social and emotional well-being of young people. Our guests will provide mindful, intentional guidance and strategies for parents and caregivers to help kids make healthy digital choices that keep them safe and balanced in their relationships with the online world.
Attendees will walk away with actionable insights for promoting digital wellness in young people, with:
A clear understanding of the impact of screens and tech on youth
Advice on how to approach digital wellness with youth by being “smart, not scared”
How to keep kids safe online, including how to respond if they’ve been exposed to pornography
Best practices for keeping tech in check and improving kids’ media mindfulness, including tips for summer screentime
Opportunities to empower communities to create a culture of change and achieve digital media wellness

MA is on its well on its way to passing bell-to-bell personal electronic device-free schools legislation. And it’s about time as most other states have already done so. The law requires personal electronic devices, including tablets and smartwatches, be inaccessible to students during the entire school day and while on school property. We’ll give you tips on how to mobilize your community to advocate for a stronger policy in your district before this law is passed. Join us!!
