Bull Session
Parenting in the Digital Age
November 23, 2016
Episode Summary
On The Digital Life podcast this week, we discuss parenting in the digital age. Last month, the American Academy of Pediatrics released a study on Children and Adolescents and Digital Media. The study identified both benefits from the use of digital and social media — like early learning and exposure to new ideas and knowledge — as well as risks — including negative effects on sleep and a higher incidence of obesity and depression.
In this episode we explore setting boundaries for our children in the seemingly boundary-less environment of the digital life.
