Podcast Episode 177: Why We Need to Stop Shaming Moms About Their Kids and Phones
Our children are growing up in a world where technology is becoming increasingly commonplace. And the idea of when to introduce your child to that technology in the form of their own phone can be downright scary. But sometimes not for the reason you think. Sometimes that fear comes from the notion that you (as a mom) will be judged and shamed for giving your child a phone.
And let’s be honest…that’s pretty messed up.
There are so many difficult decisions parents have to make every day, and the one about giving your child a phone shouldn’t bring anxiety and nasty comments from others.
In this podcast episode, we’ll be talking frankly about why we need to stop shaming one another and start supporting each other as moms while we are all doing our best to raise our kids with education, experience, and problem-solving skills to they can feel empowered and be responsible with technology going forward.
Let’s give our kids the skills they need to thrive in a digital world.
