Manage episode 380695755 series 3517333
Ever tried to pry a smartphone from the hands of a tech-addicted teenager? Or perhaps you've questioned when the right time is to introduce your kids to the world of social media. Join us as we sit down with Lt Col smash, a father, gamer, and streamer, as we grapple with the complexities of parenting in the digital realm. From handling follower counts and online gaming to navigating the social dynamics of high school in a connected world, we share insights, personal experiences, and strategies to help you and your kids stay safe and balanced.
Imagine a world without the constant pings of social notifications. How would that impact our children's social interactions or their overall well-being? As we delve into the second half of our conversation, we explore this profound question, shedding light on the power of dopamine, the role of digital monitoring apps, and how starkly different our childhoods were without the pervasive influence of technology. Through candid discussions and shared parenting anecdotes, we empower you to safeguard your children from technology addiction, and help them navigate the digital landscape with greater awareness and resilience.

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.
