Mothers need support managing these new realities.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Constant re-negotiation of media use<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Between January and July 2022, we interviewed 15 mothers in the Greater Toronto Area over Zoom. We recruited parents and caregivers through 10 neighbourhood parenting groups on Facebook. Only mothers responded. Participants had children between the ages of four to 12, with people based in downtown and midtown Toronto and North York, as well as Burlington and Niagara.<\/p>\n<p>All mothers were in two-parent families, although one was solo parenting with the other parent overseas. Most were middle class. When asked to self-identify racial and ethnic backgrounds of both parents, a range of answers included southeast Asian, Chinese, Jewish, white, Chinese Canadian, Scottish, \u201cborn in India now Canadian\u201d and Canadian.<\/p>\n<p>Mothers shared that for most of the pandemic, they were reassessing and re-negotiating their children\u2019s technology use. Negotiations were focused on screen time and home spaces where children used technology.<\/p>\n<p>These negotiations and decisions were loaded with moral implications. They were also refracted through families\u2019 values and practices, mixed with anxieties about children as future adults \u2014 and nostalgia for mothers\u2019 own childhoods in less technologically complex times.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Balancing time<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Mothers\u2019 reflections on screen time\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.lse.ac.uk\/parenting4digitalfuture\/2018\/02\/28\/why-the-very-idea-of-screen-time-is-muddled-and-misguided\/\">were messy, complicated and sometimes contradictory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For example, mothers constructed some screen time as \u201cgood\u201d if it involved skill-building, educational opportunities, communication with friends or family or was a family activity (like watching movies or playing with video consoles or online games together).<\/p>\n<p>Mothers positioned video games played alone or with peers as more concerning. They worried about isolation and addiction. Families adopted strategies for monitoring screen time by using timers, scheduling screen time and limiting children\u2019s access to WiFi or devices.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Guilt for letting someone down<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Several mothers cited\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/news\/health\/screen-time-cps-1.6662929\">pediatricians\u2019 and researchers\u2019 recommendations<\/a>\u00a0around screen time, and many felt that these guidelines placed immense pressure and expectations on them as parents during the pandemic. While they cited these guidelines as ideal, following them was more complicated.<\/p>\n<p>One mother stated: \u201cI\u2019m pretty sure we\u2019ve broken all those rules.\u201d She described parenting during the pandemic as \u201can impossible balance\u201d of being in a \u201csurvival mode\u201d where sometimes \u201cthe TV is [the] parent now, because I have to get work done so that I can, you know, generate an income.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This increased presence of technology in the home and her children\u2019s increased screen time was connected to \u201cfeelings of guilt\u201d of either letting her kids down by not being able to interact with them, or letting work down by \u201cignoring tasks.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Balancing space<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>It was not just that time on screens was an \u201cimpossible balance\u201d but which screens were being used, where and for what (leisure or school). Families\u2019 domestic spaces changed drastically with the lockdowns.<\/p>\n<p>Open-concept houses made it easier to see what kids were doing with technology for leisure, but was distracting when kids and parents were trying to work and learn from home.<\/p>\n<p>Parents who let their kids use the technology in the bedrooms found this allowed more focus for both the kids during school time and parents during the workday. However, this arrangement made it difficult to know what children were really doing online.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>It took a toll<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>For some, reliable WiFi access wasn\u2019t available in all spaces in the home, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/hey-siri-virtual-assistants-are-listening-to-children-and-then-using-the-data-186874\">voice-assisted technology such as Alexa<\/a>\u00a0meant the digital encroached into spaces that parents had previously designated as tech free.<\/p>\n<p>With online school, many mothers found they had to sit near their children to keep them focused and help with the technology. This was even more challenging for those who had two or more young children in school.<\/p>\n<p>One mother described supporting two children online as constantly \u201cping ponging\u201d between them. Trying to work from home while supporting children took a toll. Many mothers described feeling frustrated as short lockdowns morphed into long months with no sense of returning to normal.<\/p>\n<p>Some parents were able to transcend the school-home binary in a way that they were never able to before. These parents who closely supervised and supported their children with online school had a much greater sense of classroom dynamics between teachers, students and the curriculum.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Tech use changed a lot for families<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>As the pandemic wore on, decisions and negotiations around screen time and where that screen time happened in the home were ongoing, and perhaps impossible to get completely \u201cright.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Technology use changed a lot for families during the pandemic.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/short-reads\/2021\/06\/22\/digital-divide-persists-even-as-americans-with-lower-incomes-make-gains-in-tech-adoption\/\">Some children were introduced to technology all together, as families got new devices, platforms and apps<\/a>. Instead of one family computer for example, with online school, each child had access to their own device. This affected how mothers managed children\u2019s and families\u2019 time and space.<\/p>\n<p>Mothers\u2019 decisions around children\u2019s screen media use are wrapped in worries about being a \u201cgood parent,\u201d concerns around children\u2019s childhood and futures and work-from-home realities.<\/p>\n<p>There is no returning to the pre-pandemic realities of tech in the home. Many kids have new devices, spaces to use those devices \u2014 and expectations to use technology for activities that previously were offline.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Must accept shared responsibility<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s not enough to think our society can manage families\u2019 changed home tech use and the burden of responsibility it brings to mothers just by having medical professionals offer screen time guidelines.
