About this Library

Many parents struggle to know how much screen time to allow their kids to have, how old their kids should be when they begin using social media, and how to navigate conflict surrounding phone and video game use.

Additionally, the U.S. Surgeon General’s Advisory Report indicates that nearly all teens use social media and we cannot conclude it is safe for their mental health. In the context of our ongoing national pediatric mental health crisis, we must come together to address these important issues. This library of quick videos provides answers to your questions about screen time and social media use at various ages of your child’s development.

Start with our Quick Video Solutions – easy-to-watch clips with expert tips and handouts. Click on a title below to access the video and handouts (log in to access the content).

Bookmark our Social Media & Screen Time Resource Guide – your parenting GPS, connecting you to quick videos, helpful handouts, live workshops, and expert tips, all grounded in research and real-life success.

At Peace at Home, we believe in progress, not perfection. Parenting is a journey, and we’re here to walk it with you. With the right tools and compassionate support, you can parent with clarity and confidence. Let’s do this together.

After this library, you will be able to:

  • Understand the positive and negative aspects of social media and screen time for kids and teens
  • Set boundaries regarding social media and screen time
  • Help to keep your kids and teens safe online
  • Communicate effectively about technology use
