No Room for Doom: Helping Your Family Thrive in Our Digital Age
The internet opens the world up for our kids….but sometimes that can mean parts of the world we don’t want them to experience. Proactively setting boundaries and expectations for healthy online behaviors within families is important, but having these conversations is not always easy. Kids want to be granted the freedom to navigate their online lives independently and often know more about technology than their parent or caregiver.
This virtual session hosted in partnership with National PTA will explore:
- screen time
- impact of influencers and celebrities
- when kids feel left out
- pressure to be perfect
- online bullying & harassment
