Topic: Social media, we all talk about the concerns that we have for the overuse of smart phones and social media in our children, particularly teens but have we taken a hard look at what we are doing as adults? We often believe that we are able to be more connected through the wide use of social media but there is mounting evidence that our teens are feeling less connected to their parents due to the parents’ smart phone use. Today we’ll be talking with a group of professionals who have been taking a hard look at what we need to do to stop this trend.
