    When Two Worlds Collide: Teens and Tech

    Miglior citazione da When Two Worlds Collide: Teens and Tech

    “

    Instead of asking 'how much screen time is okay?' we should ask 'what kind of digital experiences support growth?' When technology satisfies an adolescent's basic needs for competence, autonomy, and connection, it becomes a powerful ally in their development rather than an obstacle.
