Community 360 Podcast: Dr. Dustin Weissman and Dr. Jonine Biesman discuss Internet Addiction, Online Gaming, and Parenting in the Digital Age

“I’m all for tech, and all for the applications and the great things we’re doing with it. But I’m also all for a balance.” Growing up, Doctor Dustin Weissman enjoyed the internet and gaming and was known as “Mr. Tv” as a kid to his mom. Being a millennial allowed him to grow with the internet age and the virtual world as it developed over time. While working on his dissertation he researched “MMORPG” (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games) and this has helped him to find his niche and specialty in internet addiction; specifically the five major areas of addiction in gaming, gambling, porn, social media/smartphone, and virtual reality. Tune in as he discusses the positive and negatives of the internet, creating healthy boundaries with your smartphone, three age groups and their suggested screen time use, and how important it is for parents to model the appropriate screen time behavior to set good examples for their children.
