Kill your Screentime (for Parents with Kids 4-9 years): Ditch all the screens and get back into real world, together!

You handed your kid the iPad this morning because you had to make coffee, and something in you already knows it is not okay!Fun fact: 58% of American four-year-olds now have their own tablet. What the actual f*! And French children under six log more than 850 hours per year on screens. The tech executives who built these products send their own kids to schools with zero screens through eighth grade...The tablet was supposed to be an occasional treat. It became the default. Bedtime is a battle. Dinner is a screen. Your five-year-old melts down the second the Wi-Fi does. You know this is not what you meant to do. You are not alone. You are living inside the largest unconsented experiment in the history of childhood, and your kid was the subject.This book was written by author, fellow parent, and self confessed screen addict Martin Miller for parents of children between four and nine years old, who suspect that what is happening in their household is not okay and want a direct, honest, unsoftened conversation about what to do about it.It will not lecture you. It will not shame you. It will not ask you to move to a forest. It will give you the actual research, the actual math, and the exact seven-day playbook that a growing tribe of parents in Amsterdam, London, Berlin, New York, Melbourne, and Los Angeles is quietly using, right now, to reclaim the one and only precious childhood their kid was always supposed to have.Inside this book, you will discover: - Why your kid's four-year-old brain is defenseless against YouTube's variable-reward reinforcement loop, and what actually happens when you take the tablet away... - The specific ten forever rules to put on your fridge tomorrow, plus the seven-day launch playbook that starts tonight - What Silicon Valley executives quietly do with their own children, and what the leaked internal company documents actually show - The 20-20-2 rule for eyes, sleep, and outdoor time, plus what happens to a kid's body, attention, and language when you give the hours back - How to walk it back if you already gave your kid a personal device, and how to be the villain for two weeks so you can be the hero for the next seventy years!-This book will not ask you to become a homesteader in the woods. It will ask you to become a parent who runs their own household. It works because it hands you the exact playbook the growing global parent movement is quietly using, the exact ten rules for the fridge, and the exact first-week plan for starting tomorrow.If you are a parent who has ever handed over the tablet because you were exhausted, who has ever felt in their chest that something about the current arrangement is not okay, and who is ready, tonight, to do something different, this book is for you. Read it. And then take the phone away and turn the phone(s) off to get your kid back!
