This week’s guests are here to dig in on Kids and Technology. Can’t live with it, can’t live without it, amirite?!

Dr. Roberta Golinkoff, Professor of Education at the University of Delaware, author of “Becoming Brilliant: What Science Tells Us About Raising Successful Children” and Dr. Rebecca More, Senior Research Associate at the Crane Center for Early Childhood Research and Policy at the Ohio State University are here to dig in DEEP on why you aren’t a bad parent if you rely on an iPad once in a while.

We talk:

* The benefits and drawbacks of raising kids in a technological world

* If Fortnite is really that bad (had to get specific on this one)

* Rules of thumb for setting limits on devices

* Ways to check if the apps your kids are playing are age-appropriate

* Specific conversation starters for pre-teens who ask for cell phones

…and so, SO much more. It’s fun and informative and we giggle a lot because, really, whether we like it or not this is the world we’re raising our children in, and we have to have practical ways of using technology.

Enjoy!
