Über diesen Titel

Read by the author, Dr Alok Kanojia.

Reclaim quality family time and establish healthy tech habits with expert help from Dr K, as featured on Diary of a CEO.

Is your child spending too much time playing video games?
Are games causing conflict and arguments?
Whatever brings you here, I can help.

How much should I let them play? How do I get them to be interested in anything else?!

Video games and managing screen time are a modern parenting problem with no blueprint and a rapidly changing landscape. Harvard-trained psychiatrist and former gaming addict, Dr Alok Kanojia – Dr K to his millions of followers – offers a proven, tested plan to help parents define, set and reinforce healthy boundaries around screens and video games.

From communication strategies and advice on dealing with behavioural issues to the neurological reasons behind why tech is so addictive, How to Raise a Healthy Gamer is essential for parents of children of all ages.

Based on Dr K’s own experience with gaming addiction and his neuroscientific and psychiatric expertise, this is an accessible and engaging eight-week, step-by-step program covering how to react when your child becomes irritable, rude, or seemingly directionless around screens. Specific advice is also offered for parenting neurodiverse children, including those with ADHD and autism.

Written to empower parents with knowledge and practical advice, this guide from the foremost expert on video game psychology provides skills, offers hope and sets out a clear road map to building healthy gaming habits that will equip your child for a fulfilling future.

'The book you’ve been looking for — not only for your child but for yourself as well!' – Edward Hallowell, M.D., author of Driven to Distraction and ADHD 2.0

Kritikerstimmen

Of all the questions parents ask me as a child psychiatrist, the most common one — by far — is how to handle their children’s use of screens. This groundbreaking instant classic of a book answers that question definitively. Clear, persuasive, and rooted in the most current research as well as the wisdom of the ages, How to Raise a Healthy Gamer is the book you’ve been looking for — not only for your child but for yourself as well! (Edward Hallowell, M.D., author of Driven to Distraction and ADHD 2.0)
In homes everywhere, negotiations around gaming are tiresome and heated. Dr. Kanojia’s approach allows your child to be part of the solution — a valuable component to both reducing the combativeness that often accompanies these negotiations and to staying in close relationship with them. I highly recommend this calm, structured, and nurturing approach to better and less screen use. (Tina Payne Bryson, PhD, New York Times bestselling co-author of The Whole Brain Child and No Drama Discipline)
Among the most important decisions we make about our parenting, screen use and — in particular — gaming will define our family. This groundbreaking book will give you what you need to come to an informed and sensible resolution that works for you. It’s a book that will give you the strength to live within your values and that will support your hope for a family that is deeply connected. (Kim John Payne, author of Simplicity Parenting and The Soul of Discipline)

Es liegt zwar ein klarer Fokus auf Spiele, doch kann man die zugrundeliegenden Strategien auch für andere Beziehungen nutzen! Ich finde zusätzlich die klaren Beispielsätze zum eigenen Besser-machen klasse; es ist ein guter Mix aus Theorie (u. a. Yogi) und Praxis. Klare Empfehlung für alle, die ihre Kommunikation verbessern wollen und mehr Verständnis in allen Beziehungen aufbauen wollen!

Für alle Beziehungen geeignet, nicht nur Eltern-Kind & Spielfokus

That's the promess of this book.

This book is a guide, or a tool to fully understand and enable our kids rather than being annoying boomer roadblocks. Dr. K. took great care to explain psychological concepts in layman's terms: no one is left behind.

The first half of the book educates YOU parents on how to be the most resourceful ally your kid actually needs. With the second half, you'll be able to implement practical, goal-oriented methods that are known to work in changing behavior.
The book closes up with bonus content on neurodivergent (specifically ADHD/ADD and Autistic spectrum) that makes this book a real banger.
Totally worth every dang second of it even if you're just curious about video games addiction, the first half is already worth it.

I'm trying to find critical things to say, but the quality is WAY above the average self-help book.

Growing up with helpful parents.

Dr. K cast's a big AOE Healing Spell, and it looks like it's gonna be a Crit'

It's crazy to think, that in our "information & connection age" the most uninformed and disconnected we are are sometimes the closest ones to us.

Thank you for writing such a helpful guide, it should be mandatory read for many parents in our time and age.

I specially loved the fact that Dr. K. himself read the book. Thanks for going the extra mile!

Clear and helpful
