Why Children Need Parents Who Look Up
Original: Attention, Please: Why Children Need Parents Who Look Up
Psychology Today has published a piece arguing that children need parents who 'look up' — a call for adults to lift their gaze away from screens and daily distraction and give children fuller attention. The article frames parental presence and attentive engagement as central to children's emotional development and behaviour, prompting discussion about smartphone use and distraction in modern family life.
Why now: Concerns about screen time and distracted parenting continue to resonate with parents and educators
