Smartphones, Screen Time & Healthy Limits
The phone decision — done well, held warmly.

Inside this course
The first phone is one of the biggest decisions of modern parenting — and one of the most improvised. This course walks you through when, how, and with what to give a phone, the limits that make it workable, and the family culture that keeps the phone from taking over the household. Practical, warm and evidence-informed.
You'll finish with
- Decide phone timing on purpose, not by pressure
- Choose the right first phone for your child
- Set the limits that make phones workable
- Build a phone-agreement your child helps write
