Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo 1742 The Disconnect to Your Connection
Parents complain that their children are overly distracted and less connected. No matter how advanced our technology becomes, it actually could be a setback. What is the disconnect to your connection?
Maybe it's hanging out with your phone more than with the family. Maybe it's conveniently answering emails you didn't get through earlier in the day.

Parents complain about their children being distracted. But what about the parents?
Believe it or not, we as parents are addicted to our phones just as much if not more than our children.
By making ourselves accessible at all times, we are training others by our own addiction to technology. And this sets you up for a complete failure.
Why?
Because people are going to expect what you set.
You set the boundaries. You set the rules.
The question is, "Are you willing to follow the rules?"
We as parents and leaders need to set the standards. In the case of your family, you set the rules.
Don't let what everyone else wants to cloud your judgment.
More green, less screen.
This is common sense. But let's take it a bit further.
More eyes, less head.
"The eyes are windows to the soul."
If you are always looking at the tops of the head, how will you see through the windows to your child's soul?
What this means for you as a parent and leader, you have to see beyond what technology offers.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Disconnect to reconnect!- Stay Calm. No need to get frustrated because no one is paying attention. Turn off the phones and put them away.
- Be Cool. When you are the listener of the family, your children will be drawn to you naturally. People want to be heard. So be cool and listen.
- Get Connected. There is nothing on your phone that can tell you more about your child than your child. So get connected on their level beyond the phone.
If you had a choice between technology or a person, which would you choose?
Always putting people first above technology will change how you interact with others. It will change your relationships.
