Why Young People Find More Meaning in Screens Than in Real Life - An Insight Session for Parents and Carers

Event Overview

This insight session for parents and carers explores compulsive screen use through the lens of lived experience, combining personal storytelling with practical insight to help parents better understand what drives young people’s relationship with screens — and why changing it can feel so difficult.

Who is this for?

Designed specifically for parents and carers, this session offers parents and carers a deeper understanding of the emotional, social, and psychological role screens play in children and young people’s lives, and how adults can respond in ways that strengthen connection rather than create conflict.
