Quotes by Mark Bertin (?)

“Many children with ADHD have difficulty self-monitoring around technology. They lose track of time, hyperfocus, prioritize poorly, and strain to transition attention. On their own, they spend up to twice as much time in front of screens as their peers do”
― Mark Bertin, Mindful Parenting for ADHD: A Guide to Cultivating Calm, Reducing Stress, and Helping Children Thrive
