1421 || is it really phone addiction or just another unhealthy relationship

About this episode

"Screen use is a complex phenomenon with a continuum of behaviors ranging from severe use to complete abstinence. Some forms of use are safer than others and this should be discussed with children upfront. Remember that use and unhealthy use aren’t the same as addiction." - Kevin Y Xu , Tiffany TedrickJessica A Gold
