Her book \u201cOver the Influence: Why Social Media Is Toxic for Women and Girls \u2014 And How We Can Take It Back\u201d was published in 2024.\n<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=4302\">New York Stock Exchange opening bell to be rung from Oval Office for Trump Accounts launch<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            The Los Angeles Unified Board of Education has enacted some of the strictest rules in the country limiting screen use in schools.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Many families across the United States will soon be sending our kids back to school, where they will likely spend far too much time on devices. The new policies in Los Angeles show that a more sensible approach is possible. To get schools to adopt similar safeguards, parents need to make their voices heard and push for change.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Under the policy , kids in preschool and first grade within the nation\u2019s second-largest school district won\u2019t have instructional screen time at all. In second and third grade, kids will spend a maximum of 20 minutes on screens each day, including homework. That will gradually increase to a limit of 1.5 hours per day in high school \u2014 and no more than 10 hours per week.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            No one will be on YouTube or social media during the school day, and individual devices won\u2019t be issued to kids anymore.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Kids shouldn\u2019t have to live in Los Angeles  to attend this kind of a school.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\nAs I\u2019ve said before, we know children learn more when they write with pencils and read on paper.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The exception is some kids with disabilities. A child with dysgraphia who has difficulty writing may benefit from typing sometimes while they keep trying. These kinds of accommodations should be made in their , or IEPs, which are customized plans public school students with disabilities receive.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            However, there is no evidence kids benefit from learning on screens, said Dr. Yair Lev, a physician who has been pushing for screen limits in Lower Merion, Pennsylvania, schools. On the other hand, plenty of evidence shows screens are causing harm, he pointed out: Kids are distracted. They are accessing inappropriate content. They encounter cyberbullying. They are not connecting with teachers. And they are facing mental health challenges.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Unfortunately, most schools don\u2019t have L.A. Unified-style guidelines \u2014 and 88% of public schools issue individual devices to students. In my town, Chromebooks are issued in fifth grade.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            What can families who can\u2019t move to Los Angeles do to protect our kids?\n    <\/p>\n<h2>\n        Start with your school\n<\/h2>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium_large\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Parents can ask school officials whether their children can have analog alternatives to devices issued in the classroom.\" class=\"wp-image-4306\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/76a4b80b3818c970422c77ccc3ece9d0.jpg\" width=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/76a4b80b3818c970422c77ccc3ece9d0.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/76a4b80b3818c970422c77ccc3ece9d0-300x205.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<span>Parents can ask school officials whether their children can have analog alternatives to devices issued in the classroom.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>Ken Ruinard\/The Greenville News\/USA Today Network\/Imagn Images<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            In New Jersey where I live, when parents have offered examples of excessive screen use to town officials \u2014 for example, a homework assignment to watch a 45-minute video \u2014 a school official asked parents whether they asked the teacher whether there was a non-digital option. So, start by requesting an alternative.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            To make sure the teacher doesn\u2019t take things personally, you could write a letter to the district over the summer saying you want your child\u2019s screen use in school to be limited, said Jill Anderson, a third grade teacher in New York\u2019s Westchester County. That way, when you approach the teacher, you can share your letter and they will know your concerns weren\u2019t prompted by something they did.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            You can also ask whether your child can have analog alternatives to devices issued in the classroom. Last year, when kindergarteners in Lower Merion received individual tablet devices  for classroom use, Lev, the physician, asked that his son not be given one \u2014 and the school agreed.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<header>\n<span>\n      Related article\n    <\/span>\n<\/header>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"boy lying on wooden floor playing with tablet while two girls relax on sofa using smartphones with orange curtains and daylight, technology education leisure\" class=\"wp-image-3154\" height=\"144\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8954e74aff0f1c97b44994b724a298f7.jpg\" width=\"256\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<span>boy lying on wooden floor playing with tablet while two girls relax on sofa using smartphones with orange curtains and daylight, technology education leisure<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>Aiman Dairabaeva\/iStockphoto\/Getty Images<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\n<span>Some of what happens during youth can\u2019t be reversed.

I waited until around 10 p.m. to make a public comment on this issue at a school board meeting in my town this month.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Board members are more likely to pay attention if a concern is widespread, so collaborate with like-minded parents.\n    <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=4300\">The full strawberry moon will rise in the night sky this week<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cYou are not alone,\u201d said Lev, who helped start a movement called Pencils Over Pixels. (I did a webinar for the group this month .) Lev said once he and a couple of other parents started speaking to the school board, many others supported them and got involved. Now, there are hundreds of signs around town supporting the cause, he said.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            In my town, parents who showed up at the school board meeting to talk about limiting screens in the classroom wore white so we\u2019d be visible, then followed up with a meeting with our superintendent and other school officials.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Also try talking to members of your town\u2019s PTA if they are supportive, Anderson suggested.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            In my New Jersey town, kids are required to take state tests on computers. An official overseeing the curriculum   therefore claims the school needs to issue students individual devices to prepare for those tests. So, parents can also consider asking governors and state legislatures to go back to analog testing.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<header>\n<span>\n      STREAMING NOW\n    <\/span>\n<\/header>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Overusing Screens is Ruining Our Health.

Maybe you\u2019re concerned about kids getting mental health advice from chatbots or cheating with artificial intelligence, he said.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Then ask what guidelines the officials have for using screens and AI in school.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            At this stage, we need time limits on screen use in schools, Melvoin said.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Some schools say tech use should be intentional, but that\u2019s not enough. \u201cI could be creating and intentionally doing something literally the whole school day,\u201d Anderson, the teacher, said. \u201cThat still doesn\u2019t make it OK  .\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The  issued by the Office of the Surgeon General in May offers helpful ideas. For 6- to 18-year-olds, it suggests screen time limits of no more than two hours per day, including screen time outside of school. The guidance also suggests schools make individual devices available in computer labs rather than classrooms, and calls on schools to use physical books whenever they can.\n    <\/p>\n<h2>\n        Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll hear\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            Those of us who advocate for screen limits in classes have been hearing the same misguided responses from school officials. Here\u2019s how to respond.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            First, some people claim we\u2019re anti-technology and want to ban it.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cWe don\u2019t say, \u2018Oh, we\u2019re banning driving, because my 6-year-old can\u2019t drive a car right now,\u2019\u201d Anderson said. \u201cShe just can\u2019t drive until she\u2019s a certain age.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Another thing you\u2019ll probably hear is that kids need to prepare for a workforce where they will likely be on screens. A school board member in my town told me she\u2019s constantly using spreadsheets.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<header>\n<span>\n      Related article\n    <\/span>\n<\/header>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"a variety of tools used to reduce smartphone screen time, including The Brick, Nokia 2780 flip phone and Mindsight Lockbox\" class=\"wp-image-635\" height=\"144\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/c47df2e7d246f7290982e2c063b9e87d.jpg\" width=\"256\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>Maxwell Shukuya\/CNN Underscored<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\n<span>Want to scroll less?

But \u201cif I teach a product now that exists now, you know it won\u2019t even look and exist the same way by the time they\u2019re in the real world,\u201d Anderson said. The better skills to teach kids are how to conduct research, ask for help and persevere so they can figure out new programs as they emerge, she pointed out.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Some people argue issuing devices is more important for less privileged kids. But Melvoin pointed out that kids from lower socioeconomic backgrounds tend to spend more time on screens at home, so limits at school are especially important for them.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Like most things, those skills are best learned off-screen.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n    Get inspired by a weekly roundup on living well, made simple.
