Parents, Katherine Martinko feels your pain. She's a Canadian author and journalist trying to minimize the time her family spends on screens at home. She works to make sure the childhood of her three sons looks like her own, dominated by time playing outside, riding bikes to friends' houses and reading comic books in a hammock in the back garden. It's not easy, she often feels isolate and lonely as she is often the only parent at the school fundraisers who takes such a firm stand on devices. She shares her strategies for curbing screen time on her Substack, The Analog family.
