Video course for parents of children aged 4 to 14

Does every screen switch-off end in yelling?

6 short lessons that bring order to screens: clear rules without power struggles, a calm decision about the first phone, protection from online dangers, and a personal example your children really learn from.

The lessons are spoken in Hebrew, with full English subtitles and English drawings.

Free Full lesson 1: what screens do to a child's brain

Does this sound familiar?

Screens aren't the enemy. They're part of our children's world, with learning, creativity and connection with friends. The question isn't whether, but how much, when and how, and you can learn that.

What you'll learn

6 lessons, from your child's brain to our own phone

The idea behind the course

Not whether, but how much, when and how

Apps and games are built to give the brain quick rewards, and the manager in a child's brain, the part in charge of stopping and self-control, is still under construction. That's why switching off a screen really hurts, and it isn't just cheekiness. The way forward isn't a war on screens, but a few fixed rules set in advance, a transition with a warning, consistency, and our own personal example. And all of it rests on open conversation, so your child comes to you when something happens online.

The question isn't whether, but how much, when and how.

Every lesson ends with one tool you can try that same evening, and a short task for the week.

Questions

How do I get the lessons?

Right after payment you go to a page with all six lessons. Watch on your phone or computer, as many times as you like.

What ages is it for?

For parents of children aged 4 to 14. The principles are the same, and the lessons cover different ages: from screen rules for little ones, through the decision about a first phone, to social networks and teenagers.

At what age should I give a smartphone?

There's no single right age. Many professionals recommend delaying the smartphone as long as possible, and social networks even longer. In the third lesson I explain how to separate being reachable by parents from having a smartphone, and how to start gradually with a written agreement.

My child is already hooked. Is it too late?

No. In the fifth lesson I explain how to cut down gradually instead of disconnecting all at once, how to fill the gap, and how to build a plan together with your child. I also explain there when it's worth turning to a professional.
