Dec 24, 2020 – Online learning and being stuck at home can create more opportunities for technology addiction to set in for children. What are the warning signs, and what can parents do about it?

Joshua Andrus, an addiction specialist, says that there are a few methods to helping with a child’s addiction to screens.

He says that kids need a “pattern interruption.” The best example of this is by reading a book.

It breaks the child’s screen time, while also promoting human interaction and lessons outside of technology.
