“Can you get off your phone/ PS5/ Xbox!? NOW!” – Your parents (probably) You and your parents argue about phones. Maybe you want one they won’t get you. Maybe you have one they think you use too much. Maybe they banish it downstairs at night when you just want to scroll for five more minutes. Whatever the trigger, the result is the same: arguments. About phones. Brain scientist and bestselling author Dean Burnett is here to help. He will show you why your parents are sometimes wrong about phones (and why, annoyingly, they can occasionally be right), how to understand their concerns a little better, and how to dial down the conflict. You will learn about: Why turning off TikTok can be so hard How video games can change your brain for the better How Snapchat can make us sad (and lots of other complicated feelings) Because screens are not simple. They can be a good thing. They can be a bad thing. But they are definitely not worth getting hung up about. ‘A wonderfully useful book, told with Dean Burnett’s trademark wit and wisdom’ – Adam Kay on Why Your Parents Are Driving You up the Wall
