In this episode of the Prime Family Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie explore the real reasons many children struggle with focus and attention.

If your child is having trouble focusing at school, sitting still, or managing big emotions, this episode will help you understand what may really be happening and what you can do to help.

Claim your complimentary gift of my exclusive mini weight care guide today!Link: Weight Care Guide — Dr. Francavilla Show (thedrfrancavillashow.com)What if the biggest thing standing between you and your health goals wasn't food, or exercise, but the screen you're holding right now?Today we're talking about screen time — how too much of it affects your health, your weight, and what you can actually do about it. I've got five problems screens create, and five solutions to go with them, so stick with me.Screen time isn't something I bring up with patients as often as I probably should, but it shows up in two specific places in my practice. The first is during a comprehensive annual wellness visit, where I think about screens the same way I think about substances like alcohol, tobacco, or marijuana — something we tend to overuse, often to numb out or fill a void, and something we can usually cut back on to genuinely improve our health. The second is in weight maintenance. Once a patient reaches their goal weight and we shift into maintenance mode, I walk through a handout built around the National Weight Control Registry — a long-running study tracking people who lost 30 or more pounds and kept it off for at least a year. One of the most telling data points from that registry: 62% of people who successfully maintained their weight loss were watching less than 10 hours of TV a week. That's still over an hour a day, so there's plenty of room for your shows — but it tells us something real about the role screens play in long-term success. Today we're getting into exactly why.Topics discussed:The Sneaky Way Screen Time Is Draining Your Daily MovementWhy Screen Time and Snacking Go Together More Than You RealizeThe Hidden Link Between Blue Light, Sleep, and WeightThe Stress Connection Nobody Talks About With Screen TimeThe Real Cost of Letting Screens Eat Your Free TimeOne Easy Shift That Actually Cuts Down Screen TimeTry the 30/30 Rule to Break Up Long Periods of SittingKeep Screens Out of MealtimesSet a Screen Curfew Before BedPair Screen Time With MovementThere's a lot packed into this one, and every piece builds on the last. We'll get into why your favorite show might be quietly killing your daily movement, how it sneaks into your snacking and sleep without you noticing, and how something as small as the 30/30 rule or a bedtime curfew can start turning that around. Press play and find out where your screen time might be costing you more than you think.Connect with me:Instagram: doctorfrancavillaFacebook: Help Your Patients Lose Weight with Dr. FrancavillaWebsite: Dr. Francavilla ShowYoutube: The Doctor Francavilla ShowGLP Strong: glpstrong.com

Your kids are glued to screens all summer and you are running out of ideas to pull them away. But what if 3 items from your kitchen pantry could spark more curiosity than any tablet ever could? Shark Week is the perfect excuse to make it happen.This episode walks you through 3 hands-on shark week activities that bust common shark myths, teach real marine biology, and get your kids off screens without a single worksheet or complicated plan:✅Why hands-on observation builds deeper thinking skills than any screen or textbook✅Discover how Shark Week can spark curiosity beyond marine biology, inspiring kids to ask better questions and pursue learning on their own.✅How following your child's natural interests develops confidence, critical thinking, and the drive to keep learning long after the lesson ends.✅Practical ways to replace passive learning with hands-on exploration that encourages curiosity, resilience, and independent learners.Resources for You:Shark Unit Study Flash Sale — save $10 with code SHARKWEEK (you pay only $5)Show Notes:Your Secret Weapon for Getting Kids Off Screens This SummerIt's a hot summer morning in July. You planned for a peaceful, screen-free summer. Instead, you're exhausted, and that phrase — Mom, I'm bored — is just echoing through your house. There's a magnetic pull between your kids and their tablets, the TV, the video games. And somehow that is winning the battle, especially with high-energy boys. They're zoning out in front of those screens and you feel guilty because you want them to love learning, not consume a bunch of pixels.I've got a secret weapon for you today. You don't need a complicated curriculum or a lecture to fix this. You need a topic that instantly captures their imagination. And with Shark Week coming up next week, we're going to use sharks to get your kids off those tablets and into real learning — right at the kitchen table.Mary Anning and the Power of CuriosityBefore we dive in, I want to give you a little historical background. There was a woman named Mary Anning in the 19th century. She was completely self-taught. She lived in England, gathered fossils, and had no formal science background. Out of 9 kids, only Mary and her older brother Joseph survived to adulthood. Life was hard.But she had a dad with great influence. Her father Richard was a cabinet maker and an avid fossil collector. His five-year-old sidekick Mary would come along and he would show her how to collect fossils at the beaches where they worked. He meticulously taught her how to locate specimens, get them out safely, and clean the delicate finds. Then he would put what they found in the storefront of his cabinet shop.Dads, you have a great impact on your kids.Mary was denied formal education — like most women and girls of her time — but she taught herself to read. And she used curiosity, drive, and perseverance to make contributions to science that are still recognized today. That is what I want for your kids in this episode.Before You Start — Grab Three ThingsGo to your kitchen cabinet right now and get these three things. A bottle of cooking oil. A small empty plastic bottle. And a handful of pennies. Just put them on the counter. Physically setting them out says — today is a hands-on learning day.Myth Buster #1: Sharks Sink Like Stones If They Stop SwimmingThe myth is that sharks sink like stones if they stop swimming. Here's the truth — bony fish have swim bladders filled with gas to float. Sharks don't have swim bladders. Instead, they have a massive, oily liver that acts like a natural flotation device. Oil is lighter than water, so that giant oily liver keeps them buoyant.Here's the activity. Fill your sink with water. Drop in your empty bottle and let your kids watch. It sinks. Now ask them — what do you think happens if I fill the bottle with oil? Don't tell them. Let them observe and be curious. Fill the bottle with cooking oil, close it tightly, and drop it in. It floats. The oil is lighter than the water and rises to the top. Super easy, but so powerful.Myth Buster #2: Sharks Can Smell Blood From Miles Away Through MagicIt's not magic — it's a highly acute olfactory navigation system. Sharks track scent gradients through water currents. God gave them the ability to smell, and that is essentially their steering wheel. Like we drive a car with our eyes, sharks navigate with their smell.Here's the activity. Get a bowl of warm water. Have your kids sit perfectly still. Drop red food coloring on one side and watch what happens. The current in that warm water carries the food coloring across the bowl — just like the way a scent pathway travels to a shark through the ocean. Let them observe, ask questions, and come up with conclusions.This is exactly what Charlotte Mason was talking about when she said kids learn best when they're allowed to interact with the real world — not reading dry textbook summaries. When kids use their own senses to observe nature, they develop deep analytical skills. No prepackaged textbook or screen can duplicate this.Myth Buster #3: Losing a Tooth Is an Emergency for a SharkFor us humans, we get two sets of teeth. Lose one from the second set and it's gone for good. Sharks are completely different. They have a conveyor belt system of teeth and can grow up to 35,000 teeth in a lifetime. Their teeth don't have deep roots, so they fall out easily while hunting — and new ones just move right into place.Here's the activity. You'll need Play-Doh or modeling clay and your pennies — or small pebbles. Roll the clay into a thick strip representing a shark's jaw. Push the pennies in one by one, layered behind each other like shingles on a roof. Have one of your kids pull out the front tooth and watch how the others shift right into place. Simple visual, powerful concept.What to Do From HereThose are your three myth busters — the oily liver, the olfactory steering system, and the conveyor belt tooth system. From here, get your library card and spend no more than five minutes searching sharks online. Pick up two or three books, or a documentary if you have DVDs. Give your kids immediate, high-quality material to dig into right after they make a mess at the kitchen table.Hands-on learning gets kids off the screens. I know for a fact — when I go visit my grandkids, they are not on their screens. They're not even watching TV. But it does take energy to plan, to find the books, to build activities, and to organize a week from scratch.If you want to skip the planning completely and be ready for Shark Week with everything done for you, grab our Shark Unit Study. Today is day one of our flash sale — use the code SHARKWEEK by Friday and save $10, which means you pay only $5. You get shark life cycle activities, a curated list of books and videos with activities to go with each one, these three myth busters, shark-themed snacks, crafts, shark binoculars, and an ocean unit tie-in as well. It's plug-and-play for your summer.If this sparked one little idea, would you share it with one homeschool mom or your co-op? That would mean the world to me.

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about slowmaxxing, the viral trend that flips hustle culture on its head. Is the answer to burnout really found in 48-hour chocolate chip cookies and 15-minute coffee rituals, or is that taking things a little too far? Jenn breaks down what slowmaxxing really means, why it might be the antidote to internet brain rot, and how it connects to the priorities we already claim to care about. Does slowing down mean getting less done, or could it be the missing piece that makes everything else work better? Tune in to hear how Jenn is putting this trend to the test in her own life, and whether she thinks it is worth adopting or just another wellness fad dressed up with a new name.

What if the biggest threats to your health aren't diseases in the traditional sense—but invisible patterns of disconnection that quietly shape every aspect of your life? In this thought-provoking solo episode, Darin explores what he calls the Five Silent Diseases: numbness, disconnection, distraction, comparison, and forgetting who you truly are. Drawing on research surrounding loneliness, chronic disease, ultra-processed foods, nutrient depletion, social media, and nervous system health, he reveals how modern systems have become remarkably efficient at keeping us busy, distracted, and disconnected from ourselves. More importantly, Darin offers a roadmap back—through real food, meaningful relationships, intentional stillness, honest self-reflection, and daily practices that reconnect us to purpose. This isn't about adding more information to your life. It's about remembering what you've always known and finally acting on it. You weren't born to simply manage your life—you were born to truly live it. What You'll Learn Why loneliness has become one of today's greatest public health challenges The connection between ultra-processed food and chronic disease How nutrient-depleted soils affect the quality of our food Why social media is reshaping our nervous systems The Five Silent Diseases that keep us disconnected from ourselves How boredom can unlock creativity and emotional clarity Why real human connection is more important than digital connection The difference between information and true self-awareness Practical breathing and mindfulness techniques to reconnect with yourself Why asking better questions changes your life How one real meal and one real conversation can transform your week Why your purpose begins with slowing down enough to hear yourself again Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Fatty15 00:04:13 – A startling truth about loneliness 00:05:18 – Why we're more connected—and more isolated—than ever 00:05:49 – We're managing life instead of living it 00:06:25 – Ultra-processed food and the chronic disease epidemic 00:07:20 – Nutrient-depleted soil and declining food quality 00:08:04 – Social media, anxiety, and the next generation 00:08:50 – The systems keeping us disconnected 00:09:34 – Introducing the Five Silent Diseases 00:09:56 – Silent Disease #1: Numbness 00:10:25 – Silent Disease #2: Disconnection 00:10:56 – Silent Disease #3: Distraction 00:11:27 – Silent Disease #4: Comparison 00:11:58 – Silent Disease #5: Forgetting who you are 00:12:33 – Responsibility creates power 00:12:53 – Sponsor: Shakeology 00:14:44 – A guided breathing and mindfulness practice 00:15:25 – The one truth you've been avoiding 00:15:46 – "What do you know that you're pretending not to know?" 00:16:09 – Quieting the noise to hear yourself 00:16:49 – Four practical actions to transform your life 00:16:57 – Eat one real, whole-food meal today 00:17:16 – Have one meaningful conversation this week 00:17:39 – Disconnect from your phone and embrace boredom 00:18:03 – Write down the truth you've been avoiding 00:18:23 – Take one step toward the life you actually want 00:18:56 – Why your dreams deserve your attention 00:19:29 – Presence over productivity 00:19:38 – Busy isn't the same as living 00:20:01 – One real meal.

Modern life constantly pulls your attention outward, leaving little room to notice what your body, your heart, and your intuition have been trying to tell you all along. Healing begins when you slow down enough to listen. One real meal. One meaningful conversation. One moment of stillness. One honest decision. Those small acts don't just change your day—they change the trajectory of your life." Bibliography/Sources: Loneliness and Health Risk Associated Press. (2025, January).

You created the rule.You explained the reason.Your teen may have even agreed to it.But now they are still scrolling after bedtime, refusing to stop gaming, bypassing parental controls, or sneaking the phone back into their bedroom.Many parents respond by repeating themselves, raising their voice, or creating a major punishment in the middle of the conflict. Unfortunately, that can turn one broken phone rule into a much larger power struggle.In this episode of the Single Parenting Reset Podcast, Tess Connolly explains how to respond with calm, predictable follow-through instead of an angry punishment.You will learn:The difference between punishment and logical follow-throughWhy consequences should be decided before the rule is brokenWhat to say when your teenager refuses to get off their phoneHow to respond when your teen argues that the rule is unfairWhat to do when your teenager bypasses screen time controlsWhy repeated rule-breaking may mean your plan needs more structureHow to repair after yelling without removing the boundaryHow to reset the next day and give your teen another opportunityHow to manage different technology rules across two homesTess also shares practical scripts, including:“The rule was clear. This is not a punishment. This is the follow-through we already agreed on.”“You can be upset. I'm not going to argue about this tonight.”“Tomorrow we'll reset. Tonight, the phone is done.”The goal is not to control your teen's technology forever.The goal is to help your teen build the ability to manage screens, protect their sleep, tolerate stopping, and make responsible decisions as they become more independent.⭐Got screen time problems at home?

Jim Love covers four major technology stories shaping the future of AI, investing, and digital society. A new Verasight survey finds growing public support for stronger AI regulation and Senator Bernie Sanders' proposed American AI Sovereign Wealth Fund Act, including a one-time 50% stock tax on the largest AI companies to create an estimated $7 trillion public wealth fund. New York becomes the first U.S. state to pause new hyperscale AI data center approvals while it develops new environmental and energy rules, reflecting growing grassroots resistance to massive AI infrastructure projects in North America and beyond. The episode also examines the sharp decline in SpaceX shares following their IPO, along with major losses for IBM and Oracle, asking whether investors are beginning to rethink the enormous cost of the AI buildout. Finally, a Fortune report reveals a striking trend among technology's biggest names. Many of the people who built today's digital world—including Peter Thiel, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Evan Spiegel, and even Mark Zuckerberg—have chosen to limit their own children's exposure to smartphones and social media.

Mothers today have more advice than ever before. But when does helpful information become overwhelming, and what can we do about it? Synopsis: Join us for a five-part series on working motherhood from July 3-31 with episodes out every Friday. Social media has become a lifeline for many mothers - offering advice, reassurance and community at the tap of a screen. But what happens when the endless parenting tips and constant comparison start to undermine our confidence instead? In this episode, host Vanessa Chelvan sits down with Huda Rasid, founder of The Mum Collective, and Minister of State Rahayu Mahzam to talk candidly about the pressures of raising children in the digital age. From information overload to screen time guilt and the pressures of competitive parenting, they unpack why so many mothers feel like they're constantly falling short - even when they're doing their best. The conversation also explores practical ways to build a healthier relationship with social media, trust your own instincts again and find real support beyond the screen - reminding parents that no algorithm knows their child better than they do. Highlights (click/tap above): 5:20 Do social media algorithms reflect our anxieties back at us? 9:54 Too many choices have eroded mums' confidence in their own instincts 13:00 Getting caught in the comparison trap 18:04 Rahayu on mum guilt and parenting her son 23:45 Screen time struggles and why parents may feel judged 27:50 Keeping it real on social media and examining your own triggers around screentime 33:08 Intensive mothering: Can we be less competitive?37:42 The tuition dilemma 41:42 Using social media as a tool, not a trap45:10 Finding a mum community IRL47:50 No algorithm knows your child better than you do Host: Vanessa Chelvan (vpchelvan@sph.com.sg) Read Vanessa's articles: https://str.sg/gr5Z Follow Vanessa on LinkedIn: https://str.sg/jHdJ Produced and edited by: Teo Tong Kai Executive producers: Ernest Luis & Elizabeth Law — Follow The Mother Load limited series every Friday (July 3-31): Channel: https://str.sg/oMofY Apple Podcasts: https://str.sg/8Kbv Spotify: https://str.sg/DELD Youtube: https://str.sg/HnaV Feedback to: podcast@sph.com.sg — Follow more ST podcast channels: All-in-one ST Podcasts channel: https://str.sg/wvz7 Get more updates: http://str.sg/stpodcasts Watch The Mother Load on YouTube: https://str.sg/HnaV --- Get The Straits Times app, which has a dedicated podcast player section: The App Store: https://str.sg/icyB Google Play: https://str.sg/icyX #themotherloadSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week, Kaleb and I are diving into turbulent waters and talking parenting.
You ask your teenager to put down the phone, start their homework, walk the dog, or get ready to leave.They do not respond.You ask again.And again.Before long, you are yelling, your teen is defensive, and a basic request has become a full argument.When teenagers appear to ignore their parents, the answer is not usually a longer explanation or a louder voice.Your teen may not have shifted their attention toward you. They may be struggling to transition away from what they are doing. They may disagree with the request—or they may have learned that they do not need to respond until you have asked several times.In this episode, Tess explains how parents can interrupt this pattern without becoming passive or controlling.You will learn:Why your teen may not respond the first timeHow repeated reminders accidentally become part of the problemHow to get your teenager's attention before giving a directionFive practical scripts for common parent-teen conflictsHow to validate feelings without changing the boundaryWhat calm follow-through looks likeWhen withdrawal or unresponsiveness may indicate a larger concernThe five scripts“Pause for a second. I need your attention.”“I'm not going to keep repeating this. I'll come back in five minutes.”“You don't have to like this, but I do need you to follow through.”“I'm going to stay calm, and we're still going to handle this.”“We can talk about the feeling, but the expectation still stands.”Follow or subscribe to the Single Parenting Reset Podcast for practical parenting support for the tween and teen years.Join the family through the link below for parenting tools, updates, and upcoming resources.For individualized support with communication problems, screen battles, family conflict, or challenging teen behavior, schedule a Parent Reset Strategy Session.⭐Got screen time problems at home?

Some new research reported in the World Journal of Pediatrics offers some compelling data regarding the connection between the borders and boundaries put on screen time use, and a child's video gaming behavior. Researchers found that greater screen time on the part of parents, combined with the habits of allowing screen use at meals and in the bedroom, and using screens to manage behavior, was linked to some concerning outcomes in the lives of their kids. What were these concerning outcomes?Kids raised in these kinds of homes showed a higher level of later use of mature-related games, problematic video game use, and greater amounts of weekend gaming time. We shouldn't be surprised that our screen-time borders and boundaries, or lack thereof, influences our child's behavior. Parents, we are called to lead our kids to spiritual maturity. Take stock of the example you are giving, make changes, and prepare your child for a lifetime of flourishing in their faith.
Johnny Mac shares daily comedy news, starting with Pete Holmes telling Wired he leaves 55,000 emails unread, uses an iPhone Air from 2025, and keeps screen time low (about 1 hour 15 minutes average), aided by a screen-time widget, no social media, grayscale display, and limiting color/sound. The LA Times profiles comedian Jeff Arcuri, who describes being widely recognized through Instagram Reels while still unknown by name, and says crowd work clips immensely boosted his career; he also discusses writing much of his Netflix special within a year amid his wife's cancer diagnosis and later improved prognosis, noting their use of dark humor.

Maya's fed up. Every time she's told to put her screen down and go read or draw, her dad's sitting right beside her... scrolling through Instagram! Is that fair? It's a classic case of "do as I say, not as I do" and Judge Bex is not impressed. Then it's Thomas versus Mum. Thomas has saved up his own money and he's desperate to buy an XBOX but Mum reckons it's the first step to becoming a "tech monster," and worries the console is just the start of a very long (and very expensive) list. Can Thomas prove he can be trusted, or will Mum win the day? Got a case you need Judge Bex's help with?

Theories include the multi-year gap between seasons, that dropping an entire season creates a burst of convo that flames out quickly, and the vicious cycle of cancellations.

Is screen time the battle that keeps showing up in your home?Maybe your teen is on their phone late at night. Maybe gaming turns into an argument every time you ask them to stop. Maybe social media, YouTube, texting, or endless scrolling have started to affect sleep, mood, homework, motivation, or connection.And if you are a single parent, this can feel even more exhausting because you may be the only one holding the line.In this episode of the Single Parenting Reset Show, Tess Connolly, LCSW, talks about how to limit screen time for teenagers in a way that is firm, realistic, and relationship-centered.This episode is not about shaming teens or pretending technology is going away. Teenagers are growing up in a world where phones, schoolwork, friendships, entertainment, gaming, and identity are all tangled together.The real question is:How do we help teens build healthier limits with screens without creating constant conflict at home?In this episode, you'll learn:Why screen time with teens is different than screen time with tweensWhy sleep should be the first screen time boundary parents protectHow to separate school screens from entertainment screensWhy screens often become a coping tool for teensHow to talk to your teen about screen time outside the heat of the momentHow to create a teen screen time agreement that is clear, calm, and realisticWhat to do if your teen says, “Everyone else is allowed”How single parents can hold screen time boundaries even when the other home has different rulesThe goal is not to control your teen forever. The goal is to help your teen slowly build internal regulation, responsibility, and healthier habits with technology.If your family needs a clearer starting point, grab Tess's Tech Reset Agreement through the link in the show notes.⭐Got screen time problems at home?

What did a new client say that nearly knocked Dr. Roger McFillin out of his chair? Why has honesty become the rarest thing in American life? And what if the label you were handed was never true? Be honest. You've watched it happen. Every flaw becomes a condition. Every choice becomes a symptom. Every struggle becomes a disorder. An entire culture has quietly agreed to stop telling the truth about itself.This episode breaks the agreement.
Many parents will recognise this situation: a sick child, a long car trip, or as is the case over the past few days . . . constant rain during the school holidays. Added to all the other stresses of parenting, sometimes the easiest thing to do is switch on the TV - sometimes for hours. But should parents worry about those occasional "all-day screen" moments? Dr Jo Orlando is a digital well being researcher at Western Sydney University. She joins us to look at finding the right balance in a world where screens are now part of everyday life. She speaks to Susana Lei'ataua.

Is screen time already becoming a daily battle in your home?If your 10-, 11-, or 12-year-old argues every time screens end, asks constantly for more time, sneaks devices, or says “everyone else gets to,” you are not alone.The tween years are a key window for building healthy screen habits before the teen years bring more complicated challenges like smartphones, social media, group chats, gaming, and late-night scrolling.In this episode of the Single Parenting Reset Show, Tess Connolly, LCSW, talks about how to limit screen time for tweens without turning every day into a power struggle.This is not about making screens the enemy.It is about helping your tween learn balance, responsibility, emotional regulation, and healthy device habits while you remain the steady parent, guide, and coach.Tweens are old enough to want more independence, but they are still young enough to need clear structure, support, repetition, and limits.In this episode, you'll learn:Why screen time feels so hard during the tween yearsWhy vague rules like “not too much screen time” often create more argumentsHow to create screen time limits that support sleep, school, movement, and family connectionWhy devices should not be in bedrooms overnightHow to talk to your tween about screens without shaming or lecturingHow to create a simple family screen time plan togetherWhat to do if your tween gets angry when screen time endsWhy parental controls can help, but cannot replace parentingIf you want help getting started, grab my Tech Reset Agreement through the link in the show notes.

If your child has ADHD or ADHD-like symptoms, you may feel like you are constantly managing meltdowns, screen battles, irritability, impulsivity, emotional explosions, or big reactions that seem to come out of nowhere.But what if your child's behavior is not only a discipline issue?What if their behavior is also communication?In this episode of the Single Parenting Reset Show, Tess Connolly, LCSW, talks with ADHD and nutrition expert Dana Kay about how gut health, inflammation, nutrition, sleep, screen time, and nervous system overload may affect ADHD behavior problems in kids.Many parents are taught to look at ADHD behavior through the lens of discipline, motivation, or compliance.But in this conversation, we look underneath the behavior.Dana explains that a child's nervous system may already be overloaded before the trigger happens. The iPad, homework, bedtime request, or morning routine may simply be the final stressor that causes the explosion.We talk about why ADHD behavior can be connected to:Gut healthInflammationPoor sleepBlood sugar crashesNutritionSensory overloadScreen timeNervous system dysregulationThis does not mean boundaries do not matter. They do.But it does mean parents can begin asking a more helpful question:What might my child's behavior be trying to tell me?In this episode, you will learn:Why behavior is communication, especially for kids with ADHD or ADHD-like symptomsHow gut health, nutrition, sleep, and inflammation may influence mood, focus, and emotional regulationWhy screen time can be so activating for children with ADHDHow to create screen-free pockets without needing a dramatic screen banWhy protein at breakfast and balanced snacks may support steadier moodsHow movement, sleep, and connection can help regulate the nervous systemWhere overwhelmed parents can start when they cannot change everything at onceThis episode is especially helpful if you are parenting a tween or teen who struggles with ADHD symptoms, emotional reactivity, screen transitions, poor frustration tolerance, or constant conflict at home.Listen to this episode if you want a more compassionate and practical way to understand ADHD behavior problems in kids.After listening, choose one small place to start:Add protein at breakfastCreate a screen-free morning pocketRemove devices from bedrooms overnightOffer movement before screens after schoolUse a timer and clear screen transition planProtect sleepAsk, “What might this behavior be communicating?”⭐Got screen time problems at home?

And if you've ever found yourself wondering whether you're getting screen time "right", feeling overwhelmed by gaming, or worrying that your child knows far more about technology than you do, you're not alone.On this episode, we talk about why gaming can be confusing for parents, what children are actually getting from online experiences, and why not all screen time is created equal. We also discuss how children's digital needs change as they grow, how to balance safety with independence, and why parents don't need to become experts in every app, game and platform their children use.Plus, we explore Roblox's new age-based accounts and parental controls for younger users, designed to help families navigate gaming in a way that's appropriate for different ages and stages.For more details visit Roblox's Safety CentreThis episode is brought to you by Roblox, the immersive gaming and creation platform.If you enjoyed this episode then please leave a rating or review - and you can follow the podcast to ensure you don't miss future episodes.

Much of the reporting has focused on “banning devices,” but as I examined the actual policy, I noticed...

What happens when the traditional promises of higher education, standardized testing, and steady middle-class milestones no longer align with reality? In this episode of An Educated Guest, host Todd Zipper sits down with acclaimed author and journalist Anya Kamenetz for a wide-ranging conversation on high-stakes tests, debt, generational justice, screen-time, and more.The conversation begins with a fifteen-year retrospective on Anya's landmark book, DIY U, exploring how the concept of "unbundling" higher education has evolved in an age dominated by mobile technology and alternative credentials. Together, Todd and Anya tackle the structural flaws of high-stakes testing in K-12 public schools, the long-tail impacts of the pandemic on student mental health, and why a "learning recession" has persisted despite decades of standardized metric optimization.Finally, Anya shares insights from her latest efforts regarding youth climate anxiety, outlining her guiding philosophy of "generational justice"—the fundamental responsibility we hold to leave a better, more stable world for those who come after us. Whether you are a parent navigating screen time limits, an edtech innovator, or an observer of cultural trends, this episode offers a profound look at how we can rebuild human flourishing into the DNA of modern education.
Single mom burnout is real, especially when you are raising tweens and teens through behavior problems, screen time battles, emotional ups and downs, curfews, money stress, and hard conversations that you may not feel ready to have.When you are parenting alone, every decision can feel heavier. Every boundary can feel like a battle. And when your teen pushes back, it can be easy to wonder, “Am I doing this wrong?”In this episode of the Single Parenting Reset Show, Tess Connolly, LCSW, is joined by life coach and fellow solo parent Carrie Spranzi for an honest conversation about single parenting, resilience, burnout, communication, and raising teens through difficult seasons.Carrie shares her experience becoming a single mom at a young age, navigating financial stress, parenting through major life challenges, and learning how to stay connected with her son through honesty, trust, and open communication.Together, Tess and Carrie talk about what it means to parent tweens and teens with both boundaries and humanity.In this episode, you'll learn:Why single mom burnout often shows up during the tween and teen yearsHow to stay grounded when your teen is pushing backWhy trust-based boundaries can work better than constant controlHow to talk honestly with your teen about money, curfews, sex, safety, and real-life limitsWhy showing your humanity as a parent can actually strengthen your relationshipHow to build communication that lasts beyond the teen yearsOne of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is that your teen does not need you to be perfect. They need you to be honest, steady, respectful, and willing to keep showing up.If you are feeling burned out, overwhelmed, or unsure how to set boundaries with your tween or teen without constant conflict, this episode will help you reset.Listen to the full episode, then take one small step this week:Choose one boundary that needs more clarity.Have one honest conversation instead of avoiding it.Let your teen know what you need while still communicating trust.Remind yourself that connection and leadership can exist at the same time.⭐Got screen time problems at home?

Education On Fire - Sharing creative and inspiring learning in our schools
Adam Adler is a Charleston-based founder and investor focused on building technology that creates healthier, more sustainable systems — for families, communities, and the next generation.The idea for Wyzly didn't come from a pitch deck or a boardroom. It came from Adam's daughter, Isla. At seven years old, Isla proposed a simple idea that every parent instantly understands: what if kids could earn screen time by learning first?That moment sparked the creation of Wyzly — a learn-to-earn screen time platform designed to eliminate daily screen battles without punishment or restriction.Drawing on more than 20 years of experience in private equity, data-driven businesses, and systems design, Adam built Wyzly from the ground up. The platform uses AI to generate curriculum-aligned learning challenges tailored to each child's age, grade, and school district.Key TakeawaysIt's the only app with this level of iOS integration. Two years working with Apple let Wyzly act as a true gatekeeper for all apps — unlocking them only after kids answer curriculum-aligned questions.The AI adapts to each child. Questions adjust in difficulty based on performance and are tailored to age, grade, and school district.It interrupts "doom scrolling," not just screen time.
