Are you watching kids scroll through life, with their rapid-fire thumbs and a six-second attention span? Physician and filmmaker Delaney Ruston saw that with her own kids and learned that the average kid spends 6.5 hours a day looking at screens. She wondered about the impact of all this time and about the friction occurring in homes and schools around negotiating screen time—friction she knew all too well.
In SCREENAGERS Delaney takes a deeply personal approach as she probes into the vulnerable corners of family life, including her own, to explore struggles over social media, video games, academics and internet addiction. Through poignant, and unexpectedly funny stories, along with surprising insights from authors, psychologists, and brain scientists, SCREENAGERS reveals how tech time impacts kids’ development and offers solutions on how adults can empower kids to best navigate the digital world and find balance.

Screenagers: Creciendo en la Era Digital
¿Observa cómo los niños se desplazan por la vida, con sus pulgares rápidos y una capacidad de atención de seis segundos? La médico y cineasta Delaney Ruston lo vio con sus propios hijos y aprendió que el niño promedio pasa 6,5 horas al día mirando pantallas. Ella se preguntó sobre el impacto de todo este tiempo y sobre la fricción que se produce en los hogares y las escuelas en torno a la negociación del tiempo de pantalla, fricción que ella conoce demasiado bien.
En SCREENAGERS Delany adopta un enfoque personal profundo mientras se adentra en los rincones más vulnerables de la vida familiar, incluida la suya propia, para explorar las luchas en torno a las redes sociales, los videojuegos, los estudios y la adicción a Internet. A través de historias conmovedoras e inesperadamente divertidas, junto con sorprendentes reflexiones de autores, psicólogos y científicos del cerebro, SCREENAGERS revela cómo el tiempo dedicado a la tecnología afecta al desarrollo de los niños y ofrece soluciones sobre cómo los adultos pueden ayudar a los niños a navegar mejor por el mundo digital y encontrar el equilibrio.
