8. Why Does Screen Time Freak Us Out?
Many unschooling parents and adults supporting youth are fine to advocate for kid’s freedom until the dreaded “screen time” comes up.
We find that many times we are able to trust in our kids and their choices in certain areas, but when it comes to screen use we clam up, forget about what they are navigating and learning and slip into fear and control.
In this episode of Radical Learning Talks, we explore why screen time freaks us out and invite us to explore some different perspectives. As you listen, we would love to ask some big questions:
- In what ways do you limit your kids?
- How can you challenge your own thinking around their freedom?
- What if you’re wrong and they’re right?
Please let us know what comes up for you and what is challenging/hard!
