All the #tech parents I know, and I’m one of them, run a very strict control regime on their own kids around #socialmedia and #screentime.

How are the parents who don’t understand how addictive tech runs circles around the #developing #brain of their kids supposed to be up to the task?

Conservative forces like to say it’s up to the parents, but isn’t that more like saying ”survival of the fittest”? I understand it’ll give the kids of already rich a leg up, so maybe it all makes sense.

Drivers: Please don't call me while you're driving. Please don't pick up while you're driving. Please don't text me while you're driving.

Please do not tell me it's ok because x, y, or z. I have personally seen countless counter-examples for every single excuse I've heard.

It is not ok.

You are operating deadly machinery. Please don't make me complicit in your distracted driving.

Thanks!

One good thing I have found about WFH on the laptop, is that as the H&S person I give myself time out from the screen regularly.
But instead of staring out of the window I can do household chores instead. A much more productive use of the eye resting and body movement time.

installed a #screentime monitoring app (Stay Free, others are available) and set it to give me an alert if I've spent too long on an app (user can choose which, set time limit and word their own alert, obviously). This has helped my #Wellbeing enormously (if at a slight cost to my self-esteem 🙂)

Hot tip 🔥

If you had a screen time limit on your phone for the birb app, remember to set a new limit for this app as well! ✨

Go to phone settings ➡️ screen time (or "digital wellbeing" on android)

You can thank me later! 🫶
