How do you set screen time limits when the iPad feels like the only thing that keeps your child calm? For parents of children with autism or ADHD, knowing when screens provide a helpful break and when they’re getting in the way isn’t always straightforward.
In this episode of the In Focus podcast, Dr. Rupa Wong, a mom of two neurodivergent children, welcomes clinical psychologist and board-certified behavior analyst Dr. Gabie Izralson. Dr. Izralson explains why stopping screen time can be difficult, why content choices matter, and how to set boundaries and prepare children for what comes next. She shares realistic ways to start making changes and explains when meltdowns become a cause for concern.
