Johnathan Neal+FollowScreen Time Rules Are Outdated?Turns out, just limiting kids’ screen time isn’t cutting it anymore. The American Academy of Pediatrics says we need bigger changes—like holding tech companies accountable for what kids see online. It’s not just on parents to monitor every click (which is basically impossible). The real move? Open convos with your kids about what they’re doing online, and push for safer digital spaces. Watching TikToks together counts as bonding now! #Health #MentalHealth #Parenting00Share
