It can be challenging for parents and carers to know whether children are spending too much time on their devices. Furthermore, it’s even more of a challenge to know whether a child is addicted to the Internet and social media. As technology is becoming more pervasive, children and young people are experiencing tech – related dependencies. Do we as parents and carers have the knowledge to identify and support children and young people who may be developing an addiction to their devices?

Put your devices down and 'get outside' in the summer holidays!

As the summer holidays are just around the corner, we thought it would be a great idea to encourage young people to put their devices down this summer break and enjoy the wonders of the outdoors.

This #WakeUpWednesday, we're sharing our 'Screen addiction' guide to arm parents with the knowledge to be able to identify and support young people who may be spending too much time on their devices📱🎮
