How can our families cultivate healthy relationships with technology?
We’re all trying to impose limits on how, when, and why our kids interact with technology. But in our increasingly tech-driven world, it can be hard to navigate.
Writer Erin Loechner is joining me on the podcast to discuss her new book, The Opt-Out Family, and to offer her life-giving take on building lasting connections with your kids.
We discuss everything from the importance of boredom to Erin’s practical and easy-to-implement advice for becoming unplugged. I hope this conversation leaves you inspired to pursue a life less documented and more delightful!
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• What we can learn from tech about capturing our kids’ attention • Why our kids need more space for curiosity, wonder, and boredom (and how our phones tend to get in the way) • Why you don’t have to be all-or-nothing with technology
