Reset Your Child's Brain
A Four-Week Plan to End Meltdowns, Raise Grades, and Boost Social Skills by Reversing the Effects of Electronic Screen-Time. Victoria L. Dunckley, who specializes in working with children and families who have failed to respond to previous treatment, has pioneered a new program. In her work with more than 500 children, teens, and young adults diagnosed with psychiatric disorders, 80 percent showed marked improvement after completing the four-week program presented here. Interactive screens, including those on video games, laptops, cell phones, and tablets, overstimulate a child’s nervous system. While virtually no one in today’s connected world can completely shun electronic stimuli, Dunckley shows how the most vulnerable among us — our children — can and should be spared their damaging effects.
