Helping Our Kids Manage Technology Well (Part 1) - Dr. Gary Chapman & Arlene Pellicane

Screen time is a battle all parents face. While technology is a great tool, it can also be a distraction. And at its worst, it can derail a child’s growth and development as well as family relationships. But we live in a tech-driven world, and we need to learn to how to balance appropriate tech use with healthy boundaries.
On this two-day Focus on the Family broadcast, Dr. Gary Chapman and Arlene Pellicane reveal how technology is changing our kids-impacting the brain, relationships, safety, and emotional health. You’ll discover five social skills every child needs to be successful in life-affection, anger management, appreciation, apology and attention. They offer solid insight about technology and digital devices along with some practical tools for connecting with your children in the midst of their tech-driven world.

@@guitar-jo I have to say education is definitely beginning to change as the world is changing. I’ve been praying that this will be my last year in the classroom and I can homeschool my children.

Great content. Wonderful advise. Putting healthy boundaries in place starting today. For myself that means spending more time pivoting to my child and giving him undivided attention.

The audio on your videos is extremely hard to hear. I am hard of hearing so this makes it worse. Is there ANY way to increase the volume in your videos?
