Devorah Heitner, author of "Screenwise: Helping Kids Thrive (and Survive) in Their Digital World"
Raising Digital Natives
Parents today worry that kids are addicted, detached, or distracted because of digital devices. According to Dr. Devorah Heitner, Digital Natives need mentorship to thrive in their digital world. You’ll learn what it is like for children to grow up in a world where school experiences, family life, and friendships are all shaped by digital connection—and how you can share your own lifetime of social wisdom to mentor children to become the best people that they can be.
