Thanks for sharing, Matt! I think this article provides a lot of great discussion points and things to consider.
As mentioned in the article, guidelines from the Canadian Paediatric Society and American Academy of Pediatrics suggest limiting recreational screen time for youth to minimize the risk of future problem technology use but I think this is just a starting point. Risk factors such as a child's developmental stage, any existing mental health problems and even what the child is doing online/on their Smartphone need to be considered. This may provide information on which children may be at risk and enable guardians and/or clinicians to implement preventative measures.
What tips and guidelines have you found effective in your practice?
