Dr. Aaron Weiner
Parenting Teens and Tweens is Hard: Let’s Talk, The Webinar Series with Lake Forest addiction psychologist
The necessary evil that concerns all parents: smartphones. Kids beg for them, they’re essential for social acceptance, and there are many benefits (safety, GPS tracking, ease of communication); yet the U.S. Surgeon General warns that teen and tween smartphone use (and social media, in particular) is leading to a mental health crisis that is “the defining public health issue of our time.” Join Dr. Aaron Weiner to discuss this controversial and complex issue, recognize the signs of an unhealthy relationship between teens, tweens and their smartphones, and learn skills to engage in productive discussions, set healthy boundaries, and promote mental wellness with teens, tweens and screens.
