Description
To say our children are immersed in technology would be an understatement. Smart phones, tablets, and television have kids spending more time in front of the screen than ever before. These fancy toys are lauded as educational, brain-boosting, creativity-generating, and by far the best babysitter ever invented. Some say this is the greatest time to be a child, while others claim electronics are creating the dumbest generation yet. In this mass of conflicting opinions and supposed evidence, what does the research really show?
Using the latest in brain science, and the most up-to-date- studies available, this series effectively presents the real story. You will understand as never before the effects of media and electronics on children today. You will understand the practical application of the research, and will be able to make and informed decision regarding your child’s electronic use.

My #1 favorite seminar on media. We all sense there’s a problem with kids and media, but almost nobody realizes the gravity of the situation until you learn what Joshua White shares in iChild. Absolutely heart breaking and eye opening. But also you get a spiritually liberating feeling to know there’s a simply and joy-filled solution to giving kids their childhood back, freeing them from Satan’s stranglehold and stronghold of media addiction.
