Episode 244. Parenting in a Digital World with the Screen Guys

In this episode, I sit down with Talmage Erickson from Screen Guys to talk about the impact of kids using cell phones and what's actually happening inside their brains when they're on screens… and what we can do about it without going extreme or losing connection.

We get honest about the all-or-nothing trap parents fall into, why screens are regulating emotions more than we realize, and how to respond when things get really hard… including discovering pornography use.

This isn’t about control.
It’s about connection, awareness, and leading your home on purpose.

You're not too late! Your kids don’t need perfect rules. They need a regulated parent who knows how to stay close when things get uncomfortable.
