Calling all parents and caregivers! Join U of M professors, Dr. Liz Kolb (School of Information) Professor Kristin Fontichiaro (School of Education), Dr. Beth Sherman (School of Social Work) for an engaging discussion tailored to help navigate the digital landscape with confidence and intention. In this session, we will share what local middle school students are doing on devices, as well as the current research on mental health and screen use for teens and tweens. Finally, we will consider personal use and setting healthy boundaries around screen time to foster open communication about digital health. Empower yourself to lead your family towards a healthier, happier relationship with technology. Join us as we embark on this journey together!
