In a new book, a leading psychiatrist argues we are all addicts now - with the smartphone the “modern-day hypodermic needle.” Are there ways to get clean without becoming a total tech hermit? You bet!
When other children are invited to your home, leaving them to their own devices can be a recipe for trouble. But here’s another consideration: Almost certainly, it’ll be a lot less fun.
The way we talk to our kids about their online habits can help or hinder in the quest for digital wellbeing.
We love our social platforms - but we also wish we spent less time on them. A new study has found adult users are happy to pay for help in setting limits.
