4:00 - Using screens when YOU need a break is absolutely okay and you shouldn't feel any shame or guilt around doing this!

5:05 - The difference between television and a tablet in regard to your child's development.

8:40 - How to separate your own anxiety and fear mongering around screen time so you can be educated and intentional about your child's use of technology.

16:38 - What the research reveals about how screens impact executive function development and the development of attention span.
