SEPAC presents an online Parent Training: Milestones of Growing Up in the Digital Age: Raising Thoughtful, Screenwise Kids by Dr. Devorah Heitner tonight, June 13th at 5-6:15pm.
Growing Up in Public: Milestones of Growing Up in the Digital Age. Kids are growing up in a hyper-connected world. From Roblox to Instagram, from YouTube and TikTok to Discord.
How can we help our kids navigate coming of age in a world where nearly every moment of their lives can be shared and compared? How can we help them navigate all the firsts? First Roblox playdate? First social media account? First Phone?
We can track our kids’ every move with apps, see their grades within minutes of them being posted, and fixate on their digital footprint, anxious that a misstep could cause them to be ostracized or even jeopardize their admission to college.
How can they figure out who they really are with zero privacy and constant judgment? Devorah shows us that mentoring and not just monitoring kids will help us understand and support our kids, building our relationships with them AND helping them be successful in digital spaces.
