First you gripe, then you get a grip!

Posted on September 12, 2013 by Fern Weis

 
This is Part 1, your chance to gripe and moan and groan about the free-for-all of the digital world your children inhabit.  Trust me, you are not alone.  Leave a comment below and get a conversation going with other moms and dads.  This issue is not going away, ever. It’s really important to rally the troops and ally yourself with other parents who have had enough and are ready to do something about it.
 
I know you can’t control what goes on outside your home.  Inside your walls, though, you do have a say, and the sooner you say it (and act on it), the better off everyone in your family will be.  That’s where Part 2, get a grip, comes in.  There are just four days left to register for TEENS AND SCREENS: Putting the Brakes on Technology and Social Media.

TEENS AND SCREENS
Putting the Brakes on Technology & Social Media
(a free workshop for parents)
 

 

If your kids are 8-12 years old, this is the perfect time to develop your rules and regs.  If you have teens, it’s harder to rein them in because they already have much of the technology in hand… but it is possible.

 

At this class you will:

 

* understand the real risks and benefits of technology.
* set ground rules for your kids to use all this technology that YOU pay for.
* learn how to stay on top of what your kids are doing online.
