The average kid gets their first smartphone at age 11. By high school, they're spending seven-plus hours a day on screens. With growing pressure to be constantly online, from social media to group chats, helping kids establish healthy digital habits is crucial for their well-being and development.
Andrea Davis, founder of Better Screen Time and mother of five, has navigated every stage of parenting in the digital age. She joins ParentMap for a ParentEd Talk on choosing the slow-tech path, strengthening family connection and raising confident, well-adjusted kids.
You’ll learn:
- How to create a family tech plan and introduce screens and social media in a slow, intentional way
- Scripts for talking with kids and teens about digital risks and healthy habits
- Practical tools to help kids develop self-control and values around screen use
It’s never too late to create a tech-healthy home. Reserve your spot for the live interactive talk for just $10 — and get access to the recording to watch anytime.
