Let's face it no matter how good a parent you are. Screens in the teen years are tough to navigate.

You want your teen to get off their device and go to bed...

But whenever you remind them, it ends up in an argument that keeps everyone (including the neighbours) up late. 

You want your teen to have social connection and not be left out...

But you don’t want them scrolling social media for hours looking at content that destroys their self esteem and body image.

You want your teen to spend time with their friends but wish they didn’t have to be online gaming to have this...

But whenever you suggest a face to face interaction your teen grunts or yells and walks away leaving you wondering if teens today are even capable of interacting in person anymore?

Bans, monitoring and limit setting are exhausting and not working.

You need an approach to screens that doesn’t rely on you having to be a tech genius with 24 hr monitoring capabilities.

Before you start to fantasise about moving to a forest with no electricity…

There is another way to help your teen.

Technology is moving faster than the experts, research and parents can keep up with.

But there’s a lot of learning from established research that we can draw on to help our teens navigate screen time well. 

Finally get your teen to make good decisions about screen time.

The Teens and Screens Training for Parents focuses on strategies you can use to encourage your teen to change their own behaviour so you don’t have to rely on bans, monitoring or consequences.

It teaches you how to stop the nightly battles over devices so you can have the calm back in your house and not worry when they are in their room with a device and their bedroom door is closed.

I'm Dr Kirstin Barchia.

PhD, MaClinPsych, BPsych(Hons). Clinical Psychologist (AHPRA PSY000134185)

Hi, I'm Kirstin. As a clinical psychologist working with teenagers and their families for the past 20 years, I have worked with many parents that have struggled as technology entered their teens’ lives. From the devastation of early snaps and nudes, to current battles with online gaming I have seen first hand the struggles of families.
When I went looking for resources for parents I found tip sheets that were vague...tell parents to "monitor", “put in device restrictions”, “have computers in public places”. But the pace of technology and life has made many of these practices difficult for parents to implement. Much of the advice that I found was not practical or possible for a lot of families. Most parents are working at least part time, have multiple children and other responsibilities. The advice given in tip sheets may work if a parent had nothing else going on, but is very hard to do at 9:30pm at night after working all day and not having a moment to themselves.
That's why I developed the Teens and Screens Course with practical strategies to help parents of teenagers.

  • 👉Common problems with bans, monitoring and consequences.

  • 👉The dangers of negative escalation cycles/ the hidden dangers behind fighting your teen to get offline.
