"The Gaming Overload Workbook will be a treasured resource for teens, their parents, and their teachers. Randy Kulman provides a unique way to help evaluate the impact of screen time and video games on teen behaviour, problem-solving, time management, learning, and socialisation. Numerous activities invite teens to engage in self-analysis of their screen-time behaviour, encouraging them to consider how video play impacts them. Highly practical and exceptional." – Harvey C. Parker, PhD, clinical psychologist and author.
