Description

Digital culture is like a marinade and your kids are simmering in it. Parenting, circumstances, and neurology determine what they soak up. Never before in human history have young people had the ability to so radically change the trajectory of each other’s lives so quickly. After 6 years, over 1,300 presentations, testifying in front of Congress, and countless conversations with parents, students, educators, and officers, PYE understands the complicated intersection between parenting, engagement-driven apps, and adolescent neurology and how all 3 effect the digital choices and emotions of our kids. Our fast-paced talk will use stories, simple examples, and quick tips that will give your family immediate actions. Our desired outcomes include: * Knowing the benefits of creating digital trust. * Greater confidence leading your family in the digital age. * Increased empathy for the difficulties attached to growing up today. * Awareness of the hardware and software tools that support your digital goals.
