Balancing Screen Time: David Johnson on Kids and Technology

We don't want to punish them because we kind of brought this on them ourselves. So we said, if you want to do some game time- and your dad, my wife was telling him this and me and my wife talked this through and we said what we could do is allow our kids to earn gaming time by reading time.
Ever find yourself torn between the benefits and pitfalls of technology for your kids? David Johnson, the voice behind the True Family Men podcast, dives headfirst into this dilemma in episode 71. With a mix of personal anecdotes and practical advice, Johnson explores how gadgets can both aid and hinder our children’s development. He doesn't shy away from the tough questions: How much screen time is too much? How can we encourage healthier habits?
One of his standout strategies involves allowing kids to earn their gaming time through reading, blending fun with learning. Johnson also touches on the importance of outdoor activities and crafts as alternatives to screen time. And let's not forget the power of prayer and community support in navigating these challenges. If you're grappling with how to manage technology in your family, this episode offers a balanced perspective and actionable tips.
