Podcast 1:1: How can parents guide their children to healthier tech habits in a digital world?

What if you held the key to mastering your child's relationship with technology, ensuring they grow up healthy in a digital world? Join us as we navigate the intricate web of children's digital lives, offering insights from the CDC, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and HealthyChildren.org. We'll guide you through the "five C's" framework, a powerful tool to assess your child's online interactions and their impact on mental health, sleep, and family dynamics. Discover whether social media platforms themselves are to blame or if it's the way they're used that poses challenges, while we share strategies to promote real-life connections over the allure of curated digital personas.

As we explore the role of parents as tech role models, we emphasize the profound influence of our behaviors, like checking phones during dinner, on our children. Learn how to set intentional tech boundaries and foster a balanced relationship with technology in your home. From setting screen time limits to creating screen-free zones, we offer practical advice and introduce the "Family Media Use Plan" by the AAP to help you navigate this evolving landscape with confidence. Together, let's embrace our collective responsibility to guide the next generation toward healthier digital habits, all while adapting to the ever-changing tech world.
