Have you ever wondered how technology in schools affects not just education but also safety and creativity among students? Join us as we step into dad mode and tackle the highs and lows of live streaming on Twitch, sharing our gaming adventures in Black Ops 6. We explore the fascinating shift in school policies over the past decade—where smartwatches get a pass while phones are under lock and key—and how students ingeniously find ways around these rules.
But that's not all! A hot topic on our radar is Australia's bold move to ban social media for under-16s. We delve into this contentious legislation, examining the enforcement challenges, age verification methods, and the broader implications on youth activities. With Elon Musk's critique echoing in the background, we also touch on the potential for similar regulations in the US, highlighting the debates around children's online safety, mental health, and the enormous support this bill received.
As we gear up for global tech trends, we proudly wear our dad badges, juggling family, careers, and our unwavering passion for gaming. Despite the challenges, our controllers remain firmly in hand, and no one is taking them away! Connect with us on social media and podcast platforms under DadModePodcast, and join our growing community as we continue to share insights, laughs, and thoughtful discussions about technology, education, and family life.

I'm from Australia and am what you would call a father who games. I have 5 kids so not as much time to game as I used to. But I still game and stream when I can. So come join me on Twitch in chat as we chill out.
