| 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 - PTA MeetingKIDS SMARTPHONES & SOCIAL MEDIA
PTA MeetingKIDS SMARTPHONES & SOCIAL MEDIA March 21, 2024 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm Free Pizza and free childcare. KIDS, SMARTPHONES, AND SOCIAL MEDIA: "WHY WAITING IS BEST (AND WHAT TO DO IF YOU DIDN'T)"
One of the biggest sources of stress for parents today is around when to give kids smartphones and social media, then managing the fallout. As a busy parent, do you:
Know about the new, safe (and less expensive) alternatives to smartphones?
Know the latest research showing the many ways smartphones and social media harm your child's mental and physical health, development, and physical safety?
Worry about social media algorithms addicting and manipulating your kids?
Want to learn concrete, specific best practices and solutions we can all adopt to keep our kids and community healthier and safer?
Perhaps this tech is already a source of friction or stress in your family? 👀 Please join local parent Jeremy Joseph for a presentation/Q&A on Thursday, March 21st at 6pm geared towards busy parents/caregivers of elementary and middle school kids entitled "Smartphones and Social Media: Why Waiting Is Best (and What to Do If You Didn't)" where he will help answer these questions with the latest research, expert opinion, and universally recommended best practices. Jeremy has presented to over 600 families at 17 different schools in the past two years, and fellow parents and principals have commended Jeremy’s presentation for being clear, concrete, and actionable. • | 22 | 23 | 24 |
