To the modern parent, the challenge of raising children in today’s world is more difficult than ever before. The myriad of influences and complications add to the stress and difficulty of parenting. However, was parenting easier in the past? Maybe not, but it certainly presented different challenges compared to what parents face today. Overcoming these challenges requires inventiveness and thoughtful strategies. A common issue today is dealing with children’s obsessions with games and gadgets. However, the response to these behaviors is key. Hyperventilating and overreacting to these habits only exacerbates the problem. If we can’t control our responses to these behaviors, a hostile and negative environment will be created. Conversations, house rules, moderation, and light reprimands are all essential in raising children in today’s digital age. Depriving children of gadgets is not effective. Instead, establishing boundaries and emphasizing moderation is the key to managing this challenge. Ultimately, children will outgrow these interests, including their tech obsessions, over time. Happy parenting.
