Teens & Technology
Eric Blake
This IMPORTANT seminar is
for parents with teens and preteens!
Teens are
tech savvy, but
aren’t always able
to understand how
vulnerable they
can be when online or using
their cell phones. The dangers
are real and easy to fall into.
We’ll start by talking about
the developmental and cultural
issues that today’s teens face,
many of which help explain how
and why teens use technology.
We’ll talk about dangers and
traps they can easily fall into.
We’ll end with resources and
practical ideas for what parents
can do in every day life to help
ensure the safety of their teens.
