There are screens everywhere we look: on our phones, televisions, tablets, and laptops. We use them for communicating with friends and family, shopping, reading the news, and occasionally even seeing the menu at a restaurant. Many children also use them in school, starting as early as in elementary school.<\/span><\/p>

When children are in middle school, peer pressure may be tremendous, and parents fear that their child may feel alone if they don’t get a cell phone. <\/span>Common Sense Media <\/span><\/a>reports that 42 percent of children had a mobile phone by age 10. By age 12, the figure is 71%. By age 14, the percentage is 91 percent.<\/span><\/p>

We hear amazing things about how much the next generation loves technology and how it may be possible for technology to get better during their lifetime. However, we hear just as much (and often more) about the negative effects of excessive screen time on young brains. Consequently, many parents question how much screen time is too much for their children.<\/span><\/p>

Finding a healthy balance is the solution, to put it simply. According to <\/span>studies<\/span><\/a>, screen time has both positive and negative effects, and these effects are strongly related to how much or how little you use media and technology. One strategy to avoid the addictive and unhealthy parts of a smartphone is to be able to redirect your child\u2019s attention towards healthier and more educative uses of it.<\/span><\/p>

For example, <\/span>Suzyapp<\/span><\/a> is an application that allows parents to make their child\u2019s screen time smarter by sequencing educational applications before recreational ones. This has a number of psychological benefits, including making it easier to control impulses, learn more through digital content, and resist the urge to get something right away, all of which benefit them greatly in the short and long run.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
