The Curious Dad

In this episode we talk about gaming, how much is enough? how much is too much? How important is it for kids to understand how games are designed to trap their attention and keep them playing? Screens and gaming are part of the lives of our kids, they have some benefits and some negative impacts and it's only going to get more complex as technology continues to be the most significant factor impacting each generation. Hope you enjoy this little chat and thanks for listening.

Today I chat with the boys about whether they would prefer to have both parents around more or to provide them with more things. It's likely their perspective is biased by the fact that we have been around a lot but it's interesting to get their point of view.  Had we been absent, neglectful, or emotionally unavailable they might have a completely different perspective.

Rewarding children for their behaviours rather than achievements to positively impact their development.
