We’re Going Back To Analog - Jamie Chung Says Tablets Turn Her Kids Into ‘Monsters'
Jamie Chung is choosing a more old-school approach when it comes to raising her twin boys, and that means cutting back heavily on screens and tablets.
While discussing her partnership with Yoto, the actress explained that she and husband Bryan Greenberg have become increasingly cautious about how much digital content their children consume.
According to Jamie, tablets are mostly reserved for travel because of how dramatically her sons react to extended screen time.
“Kids these days are bombarded with screens and tablets,” she said, admitting that whenever they allow too much device time, the boys quickly become difficult to manage.
The actress said concerns about child development and online content pushed them toward more audio-based and imaginative activities instead.
“We’re going back to our Yoto,” she explained, adding that she appreciates alternatives that encourage creativity rather than endless scrolling or passive watching.
Jamie also expressed concern about the modern online world, saying parents are navigating an environment where artificial intelligence and digital content can blur reality for children.
The campaign she partnered on focuses on audio storytelling, music and educational entertainment aimed at helping children use their imagination rather than staying glued to screens.
For her family, the device has become more than just entertainment. Jamie revealed her sons often use calming music to regulate their emotions during difficult moments.
She shared that when the boys become overwhelmed or upset, they sometimes put on headphones, listen to classical music and quietly sit in their own space until they feel calmer again.
Jamie, who welcomed her twins in 2021, said she and Bryan prefer outdoor activities and real-world experiences whenever possible. Still, they understand some screen time is unavoidable, especially during busy weekdays.
Even then, the couple has firm rules about what their children can watch.
“If it has a plot or it’s educational, that’s different,” she explained, saying both she and Bryan value storytelling because of their work in entertainment.
