Is your child addicted to screens? Do you think your child’s success at school or outside is a reflection of you? In today’s day and age, its a race whether to get to the top in school, to perform in a sport or just be the best amongst their friends. We forget in all of this that actually what we want is for them to #GrowRight
We got an expert to explain it all to us. Dr Samir Dalwai is one of the leading paediatricians and he talked about something that will make any parent sit up and listen and think.
The amount of gadget time our kids end up with every day can actually be equalled to addiction.
When we spoke to Dr Dalwai he discussed a few issues that he feels very strongly about. As a paediatrician is dealing with children and parents on a daily basis, the kind of problems that come to him can be quite unnerving. Some of the issues that top his list are
• The adverse effect of screen time
• How and why unstructured play is necessary
• Food battles that have become part & parcel of the life of a parent
Watch the expert explain why we need to try and uncomplicate it for our kids. Their overall mental and physical development is dependent on that.
