How do parents guide their children through the technology minefield?

We know the pitfalls after all! Whilst our kids (who have grown up with technology,) cannot recognize the problems involved.

Andrea is all about using technology for Creating – Communicating & Connecting rather than just Consuming.

I discuss with Andrea whether parents are “entitled” to police their children’s tech use.

We discuss the importance of frank and open conversations with our kids.

There is so much to discuss:

  • Pornography
  • Cyber Bullying
  • Social Media
  • Video Games
  • Time Management

Andrea suggests creating a Family Tech Plan – based on the open discussions that you have already had with your children.

We talk about how we can differentiate the use of constructive and destructive screen use (Education -v- mindless scrolling)
