Shocking Truth About Kids Eating While Watching Screen! Ep25 BMAB

Is your child’s screen feeding them more than their food? This episode explores how feeding kids with screens can quietly affect their brain development, eating habits, and connection with food. With insights from Trauma Informed Parenting Coach- Rahela Tayyebi, we share real stories and simple ways to help your child eat without a phone or TV, and bring back mindful mealtimes.

About Rahela Tayyebi
Today’s guest is Rahela Tayyebi, a Trauma Informed Parenting Coach, who helps parents turn everyday parenting struggles into strong emotional connections. In this episode, she breaks down the emotional and developmental effects of screen-based feeding habits in toddlers, and makes us reflect deeply on the devil’s warning of mobile addiction for kids.

She helps us understand not just the “what” but the “why” behind our children’s growing screen dependency, and how we can shift toward mindful, connected mealtimes.
