How Much Screen Time is too much for our Children and Teens? Between watching television and videos, Twittering, surfing the Internet, texting and playing computer or video games, it seems that our kids are spending more of their time than ever looking at some sort of screen, which begs the question -- How much screen time is too much? As a psychologist, of course I’ve always been witness to the extreme cases. However, over the past few years, screen time concerns rank up there for why kids and teens are coming to therapy.
