“When there’s so much dopamine and adrenaline…that constant fight or flight is not what our bodies were meant to do. And this is why we’re seeing these law suits right now. Kids are not just spontaneously different today; there’s something happening to them. You’ve got all accelerator, and no breaks. Over time, that chronic stress changes your outlook on life.”

ScreenStrong Founder Melanie Hempe explains how to go screen free, and why it’s so essential for the wellbeing of our families. She also talks about the lawsuit that 42 states have filed against Meta - and why waiting for the verdict simply isn’t good enough.
