Sunshine Parenting

"It seems like we have a lot more patience as a family for each other." "We noticed that he started sleeping better. His personality shifted. He wasn't nervous all the time. He was just that kid that was always active, always moving, always really nervous, and when we removed that piece from the equation, we didn't know if it was technology removal or if he's just more relaxed, but we were sticking to it!" -Jill Stribling   In Episode 35, I'm talking with educator and mom Jill Stribling about her decision to unplug her 10-year-old son and adjust her whole family's tech habits. We talk about the personality changes she's noticed, including his increased concern for others, great conversational skills, and sense of humor. We also talk about how family life has changed and why she believes she made the right decision for her son by not having him use screens anymore.
