They discuss the difference between screens as toys and screens as tools and why parents need to know their individual children when setting boundaries. Parents will be encouraged to move beyond fear based rules and instead teach kids to use technology with wisdom, balance, curiosity, and discernment. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/celebrate-kids-podcast-with-dr-kathy-253693/episodes/screens-are-not-the-whole-story-what-else-is-shaping-your-child/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/celebrate-kids-podcast-with-dr-kathy-253693/screens-are-not-the-whole-story-what-else-is-shaping-your-child.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
