Klappentext

Dopamine Kids and Adolescents is a practical and thought-provoking guide for parents trying to understand how modern digital life is shaping the minds, habits, and emotional well-being of children and teenagers. Through accessible neuroscience, psychology, and real-world examples, this book explores how constant stimulation, instant gratification, screens, social media, fast-paced entertainment, and highly rewarding digital environments affect attention, patience, emotional regulation, motivation, and behavior. Rather than focusing on blame or fear, the book explains how the brain naturally responds to overstimulation and how families can create healthier routines that support balance, focus, creativity, and emotional resilience.
