About 'The Parents' Guide to Social Media'

 Do you find yourself thinking about social media and wondering, “Where do I begin?” Don't worry, you’re not alone. There are several reasons why you might not be completely in-the-know about your child’s daily social media challenges, wins, behaviors and activities, but no matter what those reasons are, I am here to meet you where you are and become your personal curator for all things social media. Using my personal, professional and academic background, I've crafted ‘The Parents’ Guide to Social Media’ that will tell you everything you need to know about your teen's social media use. This workshop breakdowns common social media lingo, the apps your kids are really on, and provides you with conversation starter tips – equipping you with the information you need to go home and start an on-going social media conversation with your kids today. 


This is where you'll begin: 


1) Start by developing awareness. 

2) Next, create opportunities for daily social media conversation, and emphasize weekly digital detox. 

3) Third, help your kids figure out their why.
