Ideas for Managing Screen & Tech Family Conflict
When: Wednesday 28th Aug 2024, 7pm AEST
Timing: 40 minutes + questions
The battle around screen time is real. As parents we are conflicted and are often confused about the rules and the ins and outs of technology used by our children. This session will speak to the research and history of “screen time” and how recent thinking is asking us to move beyond it and towards ways of positively using technology in our lives. There will be a range of ideas and tips from family technology planning, to how to talk with your teens and why you need to let go of the guilt and in doing so reduce the conflict and arguments about phones, youtube and all things online.
