It's
no secret that we spend more time with our devices than with our loved ones.
And although it provides a solution for family members looking to reduce their
screen time, at its heart The Well-Balanced Family is about learning to take
the newly-available time and channel it toward strengthening family
connections, spending more quality time together and supporting each other in
developing healthy, productive, and enjoyable lifestyles.
The
Well-Balanced Family focuses on four areas: Connectedness, Open Communication,
Fitness, and Organization. Using an evidence-based approach, author Robert
Myers, PhD teaches parents how to encourage developmental play activities,
develop avid readers, instill cooperation and mutual respect, improve physical
fitness, build self-esteem and character, and reduce struggles over bedtime,
chores, and homework. It also provides tips for helping kids safely make the
most of their screen time.
If
your family is more interested in their phones and tablets than in each other,
The Well-Balanced Family will teach you everything you need to reclaim that
sense of familial connection and love.
