Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell Most kids need adults to help them set limits on their screen time #ldchat | |
Understood @UnderstoodOrg OK, let's get started. We'll use the Q1, Q2… format for questions. Please use the A1, A2… format for answers. #ADHD #LDchat | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell I make an analogy with food #ldchat | |
Jeff Copper @digcoaching Hi @Drhallowell and @Understood. Thrilled to be here too! #ldchat | |
Understood @UnderstoodOrg Q1. Why are kids with #ADHD particularly prone to excessive screen time use? #LDchat https://t.co/GEi9bGQajy | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell We need to learn moderation with screens just as we do with food. #ldchat | |
Jeff Copper @digcoaching A1: I see #ADHD as a self-regulation issue... why do the hard stuff when screens are so easy and provocative!? #ldchat | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell Q1: For the same reason kids with ADHD are more prone to any compulsive, addicting behavior #ldchat | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell It's the dopamine squirt that scratches the itch at the core of ADHD #ldchat | |
Jono 🇺🇦 @Ianatan_Duine #LDchat Q1: plenty of reward opportunities on screen to satisfy our dopamine needs! Also, for some parents, it gives them respite. Not the best reason but it happens. | |

Dr. Sharon Saline - Neurodiverse Psychologist @DrSharonSaline A1: Screens for kids with #ADHD is a dopamine rush, as @drhallowell states. It feels good, and enables escape from chores, homework #ldchat | |
Edie Brown @edielovesmath @UnderstoodOrg A1. My teens and young adults love digital technology. The are especially enamored with cell phones. They can do anything, hence the excessive use. The trick is to discover ways to integrate learning, organization, and behavior. Parent? Lay off the yelling. #LDchat | |

Stephanie Irwin @thirtydash77 #LDchat Q: How do I explain to my son that screen time is more addictive for him than others, to @jannasayer 's point here? He needs "why" answers. | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell What is Q2? #ldchat | |
Caroline Altmann @cealtmann1 #ldchat Have a 14 yr. old and 17 yr. old sons -- not very ADHD unfocused or impulsive. It stresses me out to manage their screen time. I end up feeling like a police. What are effect strategies for them to self manage screens? | |

Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell @jannasayer @UnderstoodOrg It is hard to strengthen the brakes, but once they learn how, the sky is the limit! #ADHD #ldchat | |
Stephanie Irwin @thirtydash77 Lately my son is using his iPad to find YouTube videos of building machines - legos candy dispensers, various rubber band shooters, etc. I find this VERY productive and it satisfies two of his dopamine fixes #LDChat | |
Hillary Goldthwait-Fowles @hillary_atp @cealtmann1 iOS 12 has a screen time feature built in now- I’m testing it for myself- curious to see how it works for others #LDChat: https://t.co/ecaK7zdJY8 | |

Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell A2: Too much screen time can lead to irritability, lethargy, lack of motivation, defiance, poor performance #ldchat | |
Jono 🇺🇦 @Ianatan_Duine #LDchat Q2: Not to mention the escalating outbursts while playing a long and intense game. Plenty of thrown remote controls or controllers! | |
Edie Brown @edielovesmath @UnderstoodOrg A2 Older students with ADHD can be difficult in the classroom. Almost every emotion manifests as anger. Proximity is a real challenge (Get away from me). Avoid getting into the "behavior dance." No you can't. Yes I can. No you can't... #LDchat | |
Hillary Goldthwait-Fowles @hillary_atp @thirtydash77 Intentional use based on interest and purpose! Love it! #LDChat | |
Andrea Azmitia @andreaazmitia A2: Sleep problems, hyperactivity, shorter attention spans #LDChat | |

Ms. Kegley @teacherkegley Should teachers allow students that have ADHD to take breaks to have screen time if they are overstimulated or having difficulty focusing in the classroom, or is this going to create potential excessive screen time? #LDchat | |
Jono 🇺🇦 @Ianatan_Duine #LDchat Q3: impaired social interaction skills. For one, crappy deciphering of facial expressions and nonverbal cues. Not to mention more risk for social anxiety with less coping for real life interactions. | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell what is Question 3? #ldchat | |
Understood @UnderstoodOrg Kids with #ADHD feel the same emotions as their peers. But their emotions are more intense with ADHD and impact everyday living. #LDchat https://t.co/moaKMZ4vul | |
Edie Brown @edielovesmath @UnderstoodOrg A3 There's been a lot of research on the effects of excessive screen-time with adolescents with ADHD (school and home). Unfortunately, there is no absolute answer. It depends on the age, emotional connection, and interactivity. #LDchat | |

Jeff Copper @digcoaching A3: Long-term effects of #screentime are still being analyzed but my concern is underachievement - which in turn can lead to shame. #ldchat | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell Long term effects of too much screen time could be dire. We don't know yet #ldchat | |

Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell Don't want to be too much of a fear-monger because some screen time is great, fun, and necessary #ldchat | |
Understood @UnderstoodOrg Q4. What are some ways we can deal with screen time issues and the possibility of Internet addiction for kids with #ADHD? #LDchat https://t.co/wuNEqeOdwS | |

Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell that means you are NOT doing lots of other things that are good for you and you are doing way too much #ldchat | |
Caroline Altmann @cealtmann1 #ldchat drhallo -- curious how much screen time is ok for teenagers? | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell of one thing that is likely not very good for you and may prove to be very bad for you #ldchat | |

Blueberry Hill Books 📚 @bhillbooks A very important subject to talk about @UnderstoodOrg #LDchat #screentime | |
Hillary Goldthwait-Fowles @hillary_atp @drhallowell Agreed. It’s intentional and purposeful. Screen time can be active versus passive. What does that look and feel like? We have yet to discover. #LDChat | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell It's a safe bet that is NOT fortifying us in any useful ways. #ldchat | |
Andrea Azmitia @andreaazmitia A3: Low problem solving skills, isolation, poor team work performance, weak friendship bonds, communication skills in general are affected since there is few interaction face to face. #LDChat | |
Dr. Esther Lindström @ELindstromPhD A2. I would add anxiety to this list. Students (especially older) likely know that there are other activities that need their priority and attention, and that the longer they're engaging in screen time, the more stressful those tasks will be. #LDchat @UnderstoodOrg | |
Jono 🇺🇦 @Ianatan_Duine #LDchat Q4: good luck in today’s culture. No quick answers. But key is family consistency. Parents need to role model. Not enough to set limits. Need to set structure early so kids are familiar with non screentime leisure time and other activities. | |
Dr. Sharon Saline - Neurodiverse Psychologist @DrSharonSaline A3: #Screentime overuse has negative conotations, but it depends on how long & what you are engaging in. Violence has little benefit #ldchat | |
Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell MD @drhallowell I would set a limit of 6 hours a day MAX on screen time #ldchat | |

Understood @UnderstoodOrg Have a great day! #LDchat | |
Dr. Esther Lindström @ELindstromPhD @UnderstoodOrg A4. The more structure and routine we can provide to students with #ADHD, the better. Schedule screen time, aim for minimal, and be purposeful about what activities are included in that definition. #LDchat | |

Caroline Altmann @cealtmann1 #ldchat Dr. Had. 6 hrs. Does that include time for homework? What is "ideal" fun screen time? | |
Dr. Esther Lindström @ELindstromPhD @UnderstoodOrg A4. We might also consider adding self-regulation to screen time. How can we use pop-up reminders/visual cues during screen time to build self awareness regarding content and time? (timers, questions about purpose, etc) #LDchat | |
Edie Brown @edielovesmath @Terri38876635 @UnderstoodOrg ADHD research typically focuses on children. I've heard of the 2 hours daily recommendation, but I wonder if it applies to older kids. High school and college has more academic needs. #LDchat | |
Dr. Esther Lindström @ELindstromPhD @UnderstoodOrg @drhallowell Great #LDchat as usual. Thanks! | |
Andrea Azmitia @andreaazmitia A4: Create activities that involve a moderate amount of screen time at the same time we include other type of work in the process, divide the working time of the entire project, so they don’t stick too much on the same task, it could be in a “circuit mode” style, actually #LDChat | |
Amy E. Valentine @amyvalentine555 A2: From one of our scholarship winners with ADHD: "Online and Blended Schooling allows students with learning disabilities to have the education they deserve". To me, the smart use of technology to engage ALL kids is beyond powerful. Esp true for #ADHD learners #LDchat | |

Amy E. Valentine @amyvalentine555 For #LDchat #ADHD #learningdisabilities and #parents in general. Until we consider different ways of educating our kids, we are not going to move the needle on the education system. #OpenMinded #futureofschool | |
Amy E. Valentine @amyvalentine555 A1-4: One of the challenges is that executive function is a skill set goes uncultivated, and unknown. Kids with #ADHD have amazing brains, but the are wired is different-- hence the need for more understanding AND working on developing their EF skills. #LDchat #allkidscanlearn | |
