Is your child unreachable even when they are sitting right in front of you? You call their name. Nothing. You call again. They look up for a second - not at you, but through you - and go straight back to the screen. You are right there. And you are invisible. You are not imagining it. Something has changed. And you are right to be worried. SCREEN: The Modern Addiction and Silent Killer is written for the parent who senses the problem but does not yet have the words for it - or the plan to fix it. Written in plain language, grounded in real neuroscience, and built for one person reading alone, this book gives you exactly what you need: clarity, and a concrete path forward. Inside this book you will discover: What screens are actually doing to your child's developing brain - age by age, from toddler to teenager Why apps are engineered like slot machines - and why willpower alone will never be enough to fight them The hidden stress hormone making your child more anxious, even after "relaxing" with a screen Why your own visible phone habits matter more than any rule you ever set How to have the conversation with your child without it turning into a war Simple environmental changes you can make today - no partner needed, no perfect moment required A complete 30-Day Personal Action Plan to start changing things, one step at a time This is not a book about banning technology. It is not a guilt trip. It is not a programme that requires everyone in the house to agree before anything changes. It is a book for you - one parent, reading alone, who loves their child and is ready to do something about it. The screen is a tool. You are the parent. This book will remind you who is in charge.
