Parenting

Did you know that having children screaming in a moving car is more dangerous than using a cell phone while driving?

This was the conclusion of a study done by researchers from Australia’s Monash University. The researchers established that children are a dozen times more distracting to a driver than using a mobile phone while in control of a moving vehicle.

Such conclusions lead to an important question. Are parents better off allowing more than usual screen time to keep children busy and less distracting inside a car? 

This is the question we attempt to answer in this article. We start by defining screen time and scream time. We then focus on the effects of screen time on children. Finally, we provide some tips on how you can take advantage of screen time to keep children happy when taking a road trip.

What is Screen Time?

Few jobs are more enjoyable than being a parent. The average parent is extremely proud of their children and wants to share their talents and accomplishments. One of the best ways to let all of your friends and family members know more about what your child is up to is by posting on social media.

The idea of going back to school as an adult can be overwhelming — especially if you have children and you’ve settled into a routine with your life. However, research from 2020 showed that 38% of undergraduates were considered adult learners over the age of 25. Now, more than ever, people are going back to school well into adulthood.

As a parent, it’s natural to not only want to spend more time with your kids but actually connect and bond during that time. Things like watching TV together or just being in the same room don’t often foster that connection the way meaningful, dedicated time together can. 

If you want to learn as an older person, you are capable of picking up a book that has the knowledge you seek and learn. For toddlers, it’s quite different. They see the world in a way most wish to see it. They see its wonder, and as 2 years old, they are slightly becoming more aware and having a sense of self. So a wondrous world and a toddler coming becoming aware. This translates to a little explorer who wants to explore the world.

Some people know what they want to do for a vocation the minute they enter elementary school. Others take a while to decide what employment will bring them alive. Regardless of which category you fall into, if you know you desire a family someday, or if you already have one now, then you may want a job that will benefit them as well as you. Here are three questions to ask yourself when contemplating how to spend your professional time.

When someone considers starting a family, what most are hoping to achieve is to start a happy family. Most people hope for a beautiful life with their family, however, there is some planning and work involved in reaching that goal.

Parenting is a journey unlike any other. No matter how prepared you think you are, your kids will continue to surprise you. As you guide them through life, you want your little ones to be as healthy as possible. It can seem like an overwhelming task when your child is throwing their green beans on the floor and staying up all night. Here are five easy ways to raise healthy kids. 

Having a child diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder may present quite a few challenges. First, they get assessed for learning disability or ADHD, and then suddenly you are thrust into a world of medication, therapy, alternative treatments, and all sorts of other methods to help deal with the ADHD and it can get overwhelming for both you and your child. 

If a child falls on the playground and cuts her knee, it is easy to see where the injury is and to apply first-aid right away. If a child falls into a dark place in cyberspace, it is much more difficult to observe where the damage has occurred and to correct the problem. Technology is common everywhere, and kids and teens often learn how to meet and greet in the digital community at a quicker speed than adults do. In addition, the sorts of danger that exist online can be harder to detect because they are not always concrete, tangible entities. It may seem hard to believe, but it is never too early to start teaching internet safety to adolescents. Here are a few considerations as you prepare to approach the topic.
