Do the #ScreenTime Challenge: Here's how
Today, American adults spend the equivalent of 49 days a year on their phone and tablets.
For six months, Diane Sawyer and her team traveled across the country talking to families, teachers, doctors, and even tech insiders to pursue questions, answers and solutions.
From coast to coast, a question: people love the wonders of technology but have they become too consumed with the little screens in their pockets?
The ABC News team searches for practical solutions for families in a two-hour special “ScreenTime: Diane Sawyer Reporting" airing Friday, May 3 (8:00-10:00 p.m. ET) on ABC.
