Parenting in the Digital Age: A Call to Action
August 9, 2025 - 22:12
In a recent panel discussion, bestselling author Mel Robbins shared a powerful insight about the impact of technology on parenting. She revealed that her own excessive phone use led her to a startling realization: her children were mirroring her behavior, spending too much time on their devices. This moment of clarity prompted Robbins to rethink her approach to parenting and the influence of digital distractions on her kids' development.
Robbins emphasized that this habit could hinder children from becoming successful adults. She urged parents to take immediate action by setting boundaries around screen time and prioritizing face-to-face interactions. By consciously engaging with their children, parents can foster deeper connections and encourage the development of essential life skills.
The message is clear: it's never too late to change habits. By putting down their phones and being present, parents can create a nurturing environment that supports their children's growth and success in an increasingly digital world.
