Insights & Blog

Welcome to Insights — a space where expert thinking meets everyday parenting.
Here, I explore ideas from psychologists, educators, and digital specialists who are helping families understand technology in a more human, balanced way.

This is where big ideas become practical — where research turns into real advice for parents navigating the challenges of screen time, social media, gaming, and modern family life.

Each post in this section highlights the work of a thought leader or researcher — people who are shaping the conversation around children, psychology, and technology. I break down their most meaningful insights and translate them into calm, realistic guidance that any parent can use.

Whether it’s understanding why kids are so drawn to YouTube, how we can model healthy digital habits, or what the experts are discovering about tech and child development — these pieces aim to make sense of it all, without the guilt or the jargon.

You’ll find reflections inspired by voices such as Dr Pamela Rutledge, Jordan Shapiro, and other specialists who look at the emotional and psychological side of tech use. Each article is written to help parents build confidence, empathy, and clarity in a connected world.

So grab a cup of tea, dive in, and discover small, meaningful ways to make technology work for your family — not against it.
