“…We advise exploration of the role of family members' norms and attitudes linked to technology use, as well as the role of different parenting styles and different family compositions. Turvill et al (2019), for example, found that technoference prevalence disproportionately threatens a subset of children, depending on the technology use and parenting style of their parents. This finding suggests that parental smartphone use patterns may be symptomatic for broader parenting styles, possibly resulting in cumulated or aggravated negative outcomes.…”

This article reports the findings of a multi-method study that explored whether frequency and duration of parental smartphone use in the presence of children is associated with parents’ perceptions of quality time and child restlessness, an indicator of difficult child behavior. Additionally, the study explored whether parental perceptions of technoference, respectively time displacement, mediate the association between smartphone use measures - respectively frequency and duration of use - and the outcome measures. We collected experience sampling and smartphone log data among parents of children aged between 4 and 10 years to assess momentary between- and within-person-level associations between the frequency and duration of co-present parental smartphone use and parents’ perceptions of quality time, their child's restlessness, technoference, and time displacement. We gathered 1484 observations from 56 participants. Multilevel mediation analysis revealed no between-person associations between our two measures of parental smartphone use and the outcome measures. At the within-person level, no associations were found with child restlessness. However, smartphone frequency did predict perceptions of greater technoference, and smartphone duration predicted time displacement. Technoference in turn negatively predicted parental experiences, although the hypothesized mediation did not reach statistical significance. Time displacement predicted parental experiences of quality time in the opposite direction of what was hypothesized. Some heterogeneity was found in the observed within-person associations, suggesting that there is person-specificity. We discuss the theoretical and practical implications of our findings.

“…These parents do not explicitly limit their children's behaviour but expect them to be responsible and self-regulating. They adhere to the rule of thumb -for example, when it comes to Internet time (Konok et al 2020;Turvill et al 2019).…”

Background: Using digital tools with children during the pandemic has positive and negative impacts. However, we must investigate how parents with higher education qualifications best apply digital parenting.Aim: The aim of this article was to explore the practice of digital parenting with parents with higher education backgrounds, the digital tools used and the parents’ motivation during the pandemic.Setting: This research was conducted with parents who work as university lecturers in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan, Indonesia.Methods: This study involved 27 lecturers with children in early childhood education. Data were collected using structured interview techniques and analysed using presentation, reduction and verification techniques. The validity of the data was ensured through the triangulation of sources and the extension of the research time.Results: The results show that applying restrictive mediation through various regulations in using smartphones coupled with authoritative parenting is the leading choice for parents. During the pandemic, parents give children more freedom and time to use smartphones; therefore, they have to adjust their parenting patterns to counteract the negative impacts caused by these digital devices. However, the lack of parenting support, many work schedules and limited interaction time with children can affect this parenting style.Conclusion: Parents can implement a successful digital parenting transition during a pandemic. Support, motivation, communication, supervision, rules and restrictions imposed on children to continue to use smartphones according to their age are important factors to ensure parenting success in the digital era.

“…Pattern foster resilience in terms of early childhood should not let children free without understanding the principles of cause and effect. This is also the reason for parents to apply Authoritative Parenting [8] as parenting style in the Age of disruption in Early Childhood as stated by 16 parents with educational background in Tahir, aged 25-40 years Characteristics of patient and wise. Set limits, give an understanding to the children, and responsive to their emotional needs are three principal things in their parenting style.…”
