Raising Screen Smart Kids with Jessica Joelle Alexander, Episode 121

In today's podcast, Jessica Joelle Alexander - best-selling author and Danish Parenting Expert - talks about "Raising Digital Citizens." Research shows that having open conversations around digital safety and awareness is by far the best and most protective measure parents can take. The reality is, while we all must constantly confront an ever changing technological landscape of apps, games and social media, the basic foundation of what it means to be a good citizen doesn´t change. This is what we really need to talk about with our kids. Things like critical thinking, rights, safety, wellbeing and good communication, to name a few, are just as important in the digital world as they are in the real world. Jessia discusses how fostering rsponsibility and reflection in children, is far more impactful than expecting obedience.Jessica has just released her phenomenal Raising Digital Citizen’s conversation cards.
