Do you struggle with digital consumption, whether you or your children in your home? Listen in and learn what we now know about how technology impacts our children. Click here for the show notes and extra resources. I’m concerned about technology's effects on our children’s developing brains. Today, I spoke with Forest Bronzan, a father leading global initiatives, so we can better understand how technology impacts our lives and our children.
What We Talked About:How technology is changing and impacting the way we raise our children.
The challenges we face in navigating social media
How parents can have open conversations with their children about technology use.
Teaching children critical thinking skills to help them evaluate the information they encounter online.
Setting healthy boundaries around technology use at home.
What is your DORA Score?
“Parenting is being nimble to navigate an ever-changing world, and in many cases, that's technology.”
“Start early, have conversations at an early age with your children on what your family values are but also with your community.”
“The biggest challenge is that high schoolers aren't aware of the negative influences on the internet.”
“Parents need to pay closer attention to how their children learn about the world.”
“We need to look at ourselves... We need to model the behavior ourselves.”
“There's a lot of challenges and a lot that we don't know yet about the effectiveness of learning apps.”
“There hasn't been a single study showing a positive benefit of social media before high school.”
“Try to put the phone down as much as possible during those first few years and spend time with your child.”
“Time goes by so fast. You don't want to miss those magical years checking a notification.”
