Mindful Mama: Raising Kind, Confident Kids Without Losing Your Cool | Parenting Strategies For Big Emotions & More

First Phone - Catherine Pearlman [367]


Listen Later

Cellphones have become a fact of life, with children as young as eight (yes, eight!) getting their very own “devices.” In this episode, I talk to Catherine Pearlman—licensed clinical social worker and parenting expert—about her book, First Phone. I love this book! In it, she speaks directly to eight- to twelve-year-old children about digital safety in a manner that is playful, engaging, and age-appropriate.

Takeaways:

  1. Even if your child doesn’t have their own phone, they will be around phones through their friends
  2. Kids need a resource on digital safety, etiquette, self-care, and more to empower them to make better choices
  3. We can make easy, quick fixes to help some of the most entrenched problems with cellphones
  4. Dr. Catherine Pearlman is a licensed clinical social worker and the founder of The Family Coach, a private practice that helps families solve common parenting issues.
