"Cell Phones:  Best Practices for Parents to Utilize with Their Children"

The fourth segment of the Madeleine Safety Series, this seminar will occur Thursday, February 8th from 7:00 to 8:00 pm in the Madeleine Parish Hall.  

The training combines factual information of the risks to our children's mental health, and usable tools that you can implement to safely navigate the digital world with your family.

Participants will learn through child-focused activities how self-worth can be influenced by devices and how external factors can affect what children do on online.

Other Best Practice items discussed in this training include setting boundaries and why we need them, modeling healthy behaviors early, apps to be aware of, creating your own family digital media contract, and the 5 questions to ask your child when they go online.
