Growing Up In Public: Milestones of Growing Up in the Digital Age | Devorah Heitner

Kids are growing up in a hyper-connected world. Learn how caregivers can support our kids.

From ChatGPT to Claude, Roblox to Instagram, from YouTube and TikTok... our kids are growing up in a hyper-connected world. We are excited to partner with media/technology expert, Dr. Devorah Heitner, to learn about how we can support our kids as they grow up in this world.

Join us to learn:

• How caregivers can mentor children as they grow up on Roblox, Instagram, TikTok, and other social media apps

• How caregivers can help kids use AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and others thoughtfully, ethically, and responsibly

• How can we help them navigate a world where they can be exposed to problematic content

• How caregivers can help kids be thoughtful about their digital footprint and reputation

• Strategies for teaching tweens and teens to recognize how social media affects their mood and mental health

• How mentoring over monitoring with screens actually work

• How can we help our kids (and ourselves) find the balance between plugged and unplugged activities

• How to work on sleep habits to balance screen time and getting enough rest.

• Supporting kids in staying true to themselves as they grow up “in public” on social media apps

• How social media and chatbots can affect mood and mental health

This event will be moderated by Christy Keating from The Heartful Parent Collective.
