Description

Technology is everywhere—computers, TVs, phones, and tablets. For years, scientists have warned that too much screen time may have negative effects. With portable devices and remote learning, it is even more difficult for young adults to put down electronics.

Attention Hijacked is great for children to be more mindful about their screen time. I wouldn't recommend for high schoolers, but middle schoolers and below would benefit from this book and its suggestions!

This book is definitely geared towards students, and that's not a bad thing! This book is still relevant for all ages however, not just for teens or parents concerned about their phone/social media usage.
