On this episode of You’re Doing It Right, we’re diving into one of the biggest questions parents are wrestling with right now: screen time. How much is too much? What actually matters? And why does it feel like every headline and every household is having the same debate.Our hosts, psychologists Dr. Leslie Roos and Dr. Lianne Tomfohr‑Madsen, hear these worries every day. Parents wondering if they’re being too strict, not strict enough, or unintentionally shaping their kids’ habits through their own. And as Lianne likes to point out, this isn’t just a kid issue, adults are struggling with screens too.The research backs it up. It’s not just about counting minutes. It’s about what screens are replacing: sleep, social connection, downtime, real‑world experiences. It’s about balance, emotional regulation, and the digital habits kids see modeled at home.To help us make sense of it all, Leslie and Lianne bring in clinical psychologist Dr. Jo Ann Unger, an expert on how technology is shaping children’s emotional and social well‑being — and how families can build healthier digital routines without fear, shame, or guesswork.This is an episode for anyone who’s ever wondered if they’re getting it right… or if “right” even exists when it comes to screens.At the heart of this podcast is a simple belief: parenting was never meant to be done alone. Our promise is to provide trusted guidance, compassionate support, and practical takeaways that help you feel more informed, more connected, and more confident in your parenting journey.
