Glow Kids: How Screen Addiction Is Hijacking Our Kids - and How to Break the Trance is a 2016 parenting and social-criticism book by Nicholas Kardaras, a psychotherapist and addiction specialist. It examines the effects that highly stimulating digital media, particularly video games, mobile devices, and online entertainment, may have on children and adolescents. Kardaras frames excessive use not simply as a problem of too many hours, but as an addiction-like relationship shaped by developing brains and by products designed to hold attention. Drawing on clinical experience, neuroscience discussions, cultural observation, and reports of distressed families, he argues for a far more cautious approach to childhood technology than is common in schools and homes. The book also addresses the commercial incentives behind engaging digital products and the difficulty of setting limits in a society where screens are routine. Its practical purpose is to help adults recognize problematic patterns, reduce exposure, and replace compulsive screen use with sleep, play, reading, family connection, and other offline activities.
