"How to manage Screen-time related tantrums?"

Screens have a place in our lives, but it is important to set boundaries with them and be consistent with those boundaries. But what happens when your child is having tantrum after tantrum with wanting to watch the screen?

I invited a mom from The PDT community to chat about screen-time related tantrums. We discuss:

• How to give some power and autonomy during boundary setting
• Why children and parents fall into these power struggles
• How to hold your screen-time boundaries

For more, watch Dr. Mona's "Toddler Public Tantrums Happen" YouTube video.
