The 5 Cs of Healthy Screen Time
Move beyond counting minutes. Assess your family's AI habits using the paediatric 5 Cs framework, then audit whether your child's AI activities are high-quality or just screen filler.
5 Cs Family Assessment
Rate each statement from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Based on the American Academy of Pediatrics framework adapted for AI and screen time.
Screen Time Quality Rater
For each AI activity, rate whether you think it is High, Medium, or Low quality screen time. Then reveal the expert perspective. The key insight: it is not about how long — it is about what they are doing.
The Big Picture
The old conversation about screen time was about minutes and limits. The new conversation is about quality, purpose, and balance. A child who spends 45 minutes building an AI-assisted coding project is having a fundamentally different experience from one who spends 15 minutes scrolling AI-generated content. Focus on what they are doing, not just how long they are doing it.
