Back to EpisodesKids & Technology: How to Navigate the Constantly Shifting Landscape
Description

Screens cause issues for families everywhere! The full scope of what social media is in today’s world is complex and can be overwhelming. It goes way beyond the typical social media platforms and games we usually hear about. That’s why we’re bringing in Matt & Jill Reed, founders of Know Curtains, who have created an online course for parents to help you parent wisely and put you in the driver’s seat around technology. The Reeds share insights from their “Driver’s Training for Social Media” course, discussing how families can work together to develop healthy digital habits. Matt & Jill emphasize the importance of what we model as parents and creating fun alternatives when it comes to kids & technology.
Key Points:
- Parents and kids can work as a team to manage technology, rather than parents simply imposing rules
- Kids observe parents’ screen behaviors from a very young age, so your modeling is crucial
- Social media is far more than just the popular social networking sites
- Intentionally growing your family’s fun and engaging activities without screens
