Turn off the screens… without triggering a full meltdown.

A simple 5-step reset to help your child:
handle screens being turned off
stop asking all day
begin regulating again
👉 Even if nothing you’ve tried has worked before.

You don’t need more advice about screen time.

You already know it’s a problem.

What you don’t have… is a plan for what happens after you take it away.

Because that’s when things fall apart:
the meltdowns
the begging
the constant “I’m bored”

And eventually…
You give it back.

But you know there has to be a better way.

The issue isn’t just screen time.

It’s that your child has lost the ability to function without it.
Screens have replaced:
play
regulation
boredom tolerance
So when you remove them…
Of course it feels like everything gets worse before it gets better.
👉 That’s the phase this reset is designed to guide you through.

The 5-Step Screen Reset gives you a clear plan for this exact phase.

Not just “take screens away.”

HELLO friends! I'm Alanna

Meet the teacher who saw this coming…

I spent over a decade teaching middle and high school students—and long before screen time was a big conversation, I saw how it was impacting focus, behavior, and learning.

By 2014, I was already banning phones in my classroom because my students couldn’t function with them in their hands.

Now, as a parent, I help families navigate what actually happens when screens are turned off—because that’s where most parents get stuck.

I've helped hundreds of parents who felt trapped in the cycle of screen battles, meltdowns, and constant guilt—wondering if reducing screen time was even possible in today’s world.
