Kid Screen Time Quiz: Is It Problematic?

Is Your Child's Screen Time Problematic?

Taking away all screens from our kids in today's times is just unrealistic. You use screens in classrooms these days. So, when is it too much or even dangerous? I know my OWN screen time use is problematic for me so I'd be curious to see what's up with my kids and their screen time use!

There's this quiz you can take to get a better idea from a professor of psychology at Central Michigan University.
