Parenting in a Digital World with Anna MacFarlane of @kidsaretheworst

Screentime. Devices. Social Media. Oh my! Our MomForce Facebook group is full of questions about raising children in a digital age. How old should your kid be before you allow them to play on an iPad? When is it appropriate to have a smartphone? What about a social media account? Teaching online safety is just as important as teaching fire safety these days. Anna MacFarlane of “Kids are the Worst”, joins Vanessa, to share her expertise on all things social media and parenting. It’s not IF your kids are going to see something bad online, but WHEN they’re going to see it. When kids come across something they’re not comfortable with, they need to feel like they can come to you about it. You can limit kids' exposure, but the best defense is good communication. Listen to Anna outline what has worked for her and her family.  We are so happy you are here! Make a Chatbook and use code POD20. Happy Chatbooking!
