Is your child glued to their phone—and growing more distant? Are you feeling overwhelmed by group chats, screen time battles, and emotional outbursts tied to social media? You’ve probably already discovered that the solution is not stricter punishments. What really helps is building a stronger connection with your child or teen.
Watch Peace at Home Expert Aaron Weintraub, MS lead this powerful and practical parenting workshop. You’ll learn how to set healthy tech boundaries without damaging trust. Discover how to move from conflict to cooperation by teaching your child (especially daughters) emotional awareness, digital safety, and mindful habits—with you as their guide, not their warden.
And remember the good news—technology is an incredible asset for kids when used intentionally. From learning apps and research tools to creative expression, social support, and safe identity exploration, tech can help your child grow, connect, and thrive in ways previous generations couldn’t have imagined.
When we shift from fear to curiosity—and from control to collaboration—we create space for kids to build a healthy, balanced relationship with technology that supports both their mental health and personal development.
