Develop Skills to Ensure Success

Video Game Addiction: The Time for Action is Now

As parents, it’s our job to guide our children toward independence and success. If your child’s inability to self-regulate screen time is preventing them from thriving academically or socially, now is the time to act. Early intervention can change their future.

Ask yourself:

  • Does your child sneak devices or ignore limits?

  • Would they choose gaming over homework or responsibilities?

  • Do they avoid social activities or outdoor play for screens?

  • Has school performance or home responsibility declined?

If you answered yes to any of these, it’s time for a reset. Summerland Camps helps children, teens, and young adults build the self-regulation skills they need to succeed. Our programs are especially effective for those with ADHD and autism, who often struggle with impulsivity, focus, and social skills related to screen overuse.
