A neutral definition
Balance Is About the Whole Pattern of Life.
There is no universal number of hours that explains every person’s experience. A more useful view considers what digital activity provides and what it may be displacing.
Useful questions
- Does digital activity support learning, connection or creativity?
- Is there enough space for sleep, movement and relationships?
- Can the young person take part in responsibilities and practical activity?
- Are routines workable for the individual and family?
