In the digital age, the establishment of parent-child relationships faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities.

If you're a parent of teenagers, you may feel like your kids are constantly on their phones.

Between scrolling through her Instagram feed and FaceTime calls with friends, it's as much a source of entertainment as it is a communication tool.

This trend isn't going away.

This scenario is becoming more and more common in many families, triggering profound reflections on how to maintain a healthy parent-child relationship in the digital age.
