The Tech Diet for Parents

Let’s face it, most parents have a love-hate relationship with technology. It can make so many aspects of parenting a breeze, and others a living nightmare. And with parents feeling information in this field is all just statistics and research, who has time figure out real-life strategies that actually work?

For over a decade, psychologist Dr Brad Marshall has been helping families find a balance between healthy screen time and problematic overuse. Real strategies, with concrete examples.

So much so, famed publishing house HarperCollins asked Brad to spin this very seminar into his internationally published book “The Tech Diet for your Child and Teen”.

In this presentation parents will discover:

• The “Psych Science” or psychological underpinnings that drive the addictive nature of gaming, social media and online gambling delivered in plain English, NOT research jargon.

• When Should Parents Panic? This will spell out the warning signs your child or teenager is headed down the wrong path.

• Introduction to the 7 UNPLUGGED STEPS for parents as a guide to manage screen and gaming addiction in children and teenagers at home. Parents will leave this session with a clear action plan for WHAT they need to change in their family, WHY and HOW to do this.
