Why are kids more addicted to screens than ever before? The answer may have a lot to do with how quickly technology has changed the way children grow up. In this episode of the Prime Family Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie break down how phones, tablets, video games, and constant access to entertainment are impacting the way children think, communicate, problem-solve, and interact with the world around them. From instant gratification and declining creativity to frustration, perseverance, and social development, they discuss why constantly having entertainment available can make it harder for kids to embrace boredom, work through challenges, and enjoy the process of accomplishing something. They also discuss practical ways parents can create healthier boundaries around technology, including limiting devices at home, keeping phones out of bedrooms, encouraging activities away from screens, and recognizing how your own technology habits influence what your children do.

Every parent knows the frustration of a child who is exhausted but refuses to sleep. Bedtime becomes a battle, naps throw off the entire day, and everyone in the house ends up running on empty. But what if the problem isn't your child's behavior or your parenting?   In this episode, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie explain why many sleep struggles actually begin with the nervous system.

You'll also hear practical tips parents can start using tonight, from creating a better bedtime environment to understanding how chiropractic care may support proper nervous system function and restorative sleep.   If bedtime has become a daily struggle, this episode will help you better understand what's happening inside your child's body—and what you can do to help.   Key Moments: 00:00 – Why Kids Fight Sleep 01:56 – The Best Way to Nap 04:17 – Is Sleep Training Helping or Hurting? 07:10 – The Nervous System & Sleep 09:17 – Melatonin: Is It the Answer? 10:34 – Why Screen Time Matters 13:00 – How Chiropractic Can Help 17:40 – Simple Bedtime Habits That Make a Difference   👍 If you found this episode helpful, don't forget to like, subscribe, and share it with another parent who could use it.   #Parenting #ChildSleep #PediatricChiropractic #PrimeFamilyPodcast #HealthyKids     🌟 Welcome to The Prime Podcast! 🌟   Hosted by Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss, trusted pediatric and prenatal chiropractors in Green Bay & De Pere, WI.
