S07|17 - Creating Healthy Teen Brains: Tech, Phones and Social Media with Kaylee Low

With so much research out there around tech and teens, how do you decipher what to listen to? And how do you make healthy choices for your family, and teach your kids screen regulation in fear-free ways? Join Kaylee and I on the podcast this week as we converse all about what the research is saying and how not to get bogged down by all the information but to use it to empower yourself and your children. 

Kaylee is an imperfect Mom striving to parent with intention. With a background in nursing, she has always loved learning about the human mind and body. As a new Mom, her study shifted to parenting strategies and child development. With four school aged kids, Kaylee’s most recent focus has been on the effects of screens and technology on children and families. After a ten-year break from social media, she now spends some of her free time sharing information about this topic. Her hope is to spread more awareness in her community about the potential dangers of societal digitization– and resources and ideas for parenting with technology in a healthy way.

In this episode: 

• Kaylee’s story about cellphones and kids as her son started asking for a cellphone in middle school
• What current research shows about kids, tech and social media and what is happening in their brains
• How to make healthy and fear-free boundaries around tech and kids, and not get overwhelmed by all the information and research out there
• Taking small steps to change things in your home
