Guess what?!? Dr. Jean Twenge, author of iGen and 10 Rules for Raising Kids in a High-Tech World, is coming to Concord for a special evening with families.

How can we help today’s teens thrive in a world where screens, social media, and constant connectivity are shaping every aspect of life?

Fall is the perfect time to write, revisit or revise your Family’s Media Plan. We’ve read what feels like 100s of different tech agreements, contracts and plans and created one that’s accessible, negotiable and can change as your kids grow. We also include the research, the why and a script for families.

Call to action!!

Be on here a while - we all know deep down in our guts that social media feeds are addictive. It’s how the $$$ is made!

MA bill seeks to protect Massachusetts children and teens by limiting social media platforms’ use of addictive features like endless algorithm-driven feeds and disruptive notifications.
Modeled after laws passed in New York and California, this legislation positions Massachusetts as a leader in prioritizing children’s well-being in the digital era.

YOU’RE A LEADER TOO!!
