Some parents are adopting an "anti-dopamine" approach to parenting, which involves limiting screen time and understanding the neuroscience behind it. Dopamine, a chemical in the brain, is released when engaging in pleasurable activities like watching TV, creating a desire for more. The withdrawal of these stimuli can lead to tantrums in children. Anti-dopamine parenting focuses on reassessing digital boundaries, having conversations with children about their emotions, and providing alternative activities. It's about finding a balance between digital and real-life play, with each family needing to redraw boundaries based on their children's ages and stages.
