Title: Scrolling Generation – Managing Screen-Time and Protecting Our Kids Mental Health
Author: CHIN ARTHUR

The Scrolling Generation is a timely and thought-provoking exploration of how excessive screen exposure, persuasive digital design, and AI-driven platforms are reshaping childhood, learning, and emotional wellbeing. Drawing on global research, lived experience, and cross-sector insights, the book offers a clear and compassionate framework to help parents, educators, and communities guide young people towards healthier, more balanced digital lives.
Across households, classrooms, and policy environments worldwide, there is a growing recognition that the challenge is no longer simply about access to technology, but about its pervasive and often unregulated influence. Parents and caregivers are navigating daily tensions between connection and control, educators are observing declining attention spans and reduced social engagement, and policymakers are grappling with how to respond to rapidly evolving digital ecosystems that outpace regulation. Concerns around sleep disruption, anxiety, emotional fragility, and diminished resilience are increasingly being linked to patterns of excessive and unstructured screen use.
At its core is the Balanced Digital Living Approach, a practical and evidence-informed model that shifts the conversation from restriction to intentional engagement. Rather than positioning technology as the problem, the book reframes digital life as a shared responsibility, calling for awareness, empathy, and system-wide alignment to better support the next generation.
