Central Bucks "Wait Until 8th" Smart Phone Initiative
Tune in as Jenn McFarlane, Kirstin McGowan, and I shine light on the Wait Until 8th Initiative. There is power behind education and conversation about Smartphones. The more we know, the better our decision making can be for our family. Jenn and Kirstin are working to encourage schools and communities to allow for more free play and less screen play until the children are older and have a more developed brain. This episode is packed with information, ideas of how to handle conversations, and how to think about tech plans for your family. I hope this episode is an encouragement and empowerment for you and your tech journey!
"We empower parents to say yes to waiting for the smartphone.
The Wait Until 8th pledge empowers parents to rally together to delay giving children a smartphone until at least the end of 8th grade. Let’s protect the elementary and middle school years from the distractions and the dangers of a smartphone. Banding together helps decrease the pressure to have a phone at an early age. Ten years old is the average age children get their first smartphone. You can change this!
Smartphones are distracting and potentially dangerous for children yet are widespread in elementary and middle school because of unrealistic social pressure and expectations to have one." (WaitUntil8th.org)
