Supporting Parents with Screen Time
Signs that your child’s online activity may be having a negative impact on them or on your family include:
- less interest in social activities like meeting friends or playing sport
- not doing so well at school
- tiredness, sleep disturbance, headaches, eye strain
- changes in eating patterns
- reduced personal hygiene
- obsession with particular websites or games
- extreme anger when being asked to take a break from online activity
- appearing anxious or irritable when away from the computer
- becoming withdrawn from friends and family
What to do if you are concerned - Ask questions and listen:
- Some of the behavioural changes described above are a normal part of growing up but, if you are concerned your child is struggling, try to find out why — there may be underlying issues such as cyberbullying, friendship difficulties or mental health issues.
- As part of your conversation, ask your child about how much time they spend online and explain why it is worrying and what they could be missing out on.
- Try not to show that you disapprove or they might shut down communication altogether.
- Talking to your child’s school may also reveal academic or social issues, and the school may also be able to provide support.
