TIETOJA TÄSTÄ JAKSOSTA
Is there a "right age" to give our kids a smartphone? That's a question parents everywhere are struggling with or have struggled with at one time. The idea of making your child wait to get a smartphone is difficult to grasp because the last thing we want is for them to feel left out or the target of jokes. But a mom in Austin, Texas started a full-blown movement in response to this predicament parents face. In this episode, Nicole talks with Brooke Shannon about the "Wait Until 8th Pledge" which has made national news and taken our country by storm. She breaks down why she created it, how it works, and some other options parents may want to consider. Whether your children are grown or you're just starting your family, this discussion is one that gets you thinking a bit more carefully about our children's relationship with technology.
