In a world where digital devices are nearly as common as toys, screens, and devices have taken over our lives to an extent that regulating screen time isn’t always possible.

As a Registered Dietitian, I strongly believe that there are both positive and negative effects of screen time, but the latter has always outweighed the former, which calls for parents to monitor their children’s unhealthy relationship with screens, as the ubiquity of screen time poses significant challenges to our kids’ eating habits and their nutritional well-being. Therefore, it is always advised that, while screens are a significant part of modern childhood, exercising caution regarding the influence of screen time is crucial for their growth and development.
