[REPLAY] Summer, Siblings & Screens June Workshop REPLAY
Thanks to all who joined LIVE for yesterday’s monthly parent workshop. I loved answering all of your questions and talking through some strategies for summer scheduling, healthy sibling relationships, and screen boundaries.
In this workshop we covered:
Ways to foster your child’s motivation and interests this summer away from the stress of school
When and how to schedule separate sibling activities and when to work on collaborative play and teamwork at home
Helping siblings understand each other’s differences, especially when there are different expectations for one sibling due to a skill weakness
Teaching siblings to repair conflict without the empty “I’m sorry”
Understanding all the different types of screen use, when screens can be used effectively for downtime, and strategies for setting up boundaries around screens
Already know you want to join for July’s parent workshop? We will be talking about Psycho-educational Evaluations! Registration is open at the link.

Andrea and I discuss:
What's the latest info on how much time kids are spending on devices?
When are kids ready for devices? Specifically for phones?
When are they ready for social media?
How do you set boundaries around technology?
How do you bring up the potential for sexting or pornography?
Is there value in having a family device?
Are there any apps or hardware that helps with parental controls?
What happens when your child breaks the rules on technology?
