Hendrik Wüst: Father's luck and children's series - a minister in family happiness!

NRW, Deutschland - Hendrik Wüst, the Prime Minister of North Rhine-Westphalia, gave insights into his father luck in an interview. The 45-year-old politician first became a father in March 2021 and is now proud dad of four-year-old daughter Philippa, who is an enormous source of inspiration for him. Wüst and his wife Katharina, with whom he has been married since 2019, are very happy about the birth of her daughter. On the occasion of his early 50th birthday on July 19, Wüst reflects on the importance of his family in his life.

In today's world, the upbringing of children is a major challenge for many parents. The topic of screen time is particularly popular and is often discussed. Wüst uses the moments when he watches children's series with Philippa to spend time together. He admits that he often falls asleep with his daughter when looking at these series. Despite his political responsibility, Wüst takes the time to take care of everyday tasks such as changing diapers, which very much earths. A smile of his daughter brings him joy and satisfaction in the often stressful everyday life of a prime minister.

education and screen time

In an interview with "Bunte", Wüst said that he is currently not worried about his daughter's screen time, since Philippa is not yet interested. This relaxed relationship with media use is an important point for many parents who often have a guilty conscience on TV. Against the background of new studies on the effects of screen use on the brain function and development of children, the discussion about adequate screen time is highly topical.

A comprehensive study that has been carried out over 23 years and included 30,000 subjects under the age of 12 has shown that screen time can have both negative and positive effects on brain function. The negative consequences include changes in memory and problem -solving ability, especially with excessive use of tablets. On the other hand, the right type of media use, such as video games, can also promote cognitive skills and improve concentration. The recommendations of the World Health Organization with regard to screen time-a maximum of one hour a day for children from 1 to 4 years and no screen time for under 1 year old-reflect the need for a conscious media selection.

In summary, Wüst pulls strength and inspiration from his father role and attaches great importance to making the time with his daughter as meaningful as possible. Life as a father in addition to his political commitment seems to be a refreshing challenge for him, which shows him what is really important in life. His open commitment to paternity and his questioning of educational methods are important impulses in today's discussion about the role of parents in media education.

The experiences of Wüst are a encouragement for many parents who have to find the balance between work and family and underline the importance of time together in family life.
