CALM AND CONNECTED - EPISODE 165

What does it mean to be a tech intentional family? Now phones, ipads and other forms of technology are in most areas of life. There’s no size that fits all and what works for you and your family will look so different to your next door neighbor and the other parents you meet at the school gate. So where do you begin?

In today’s episode Janine speaks to Emily about:

How to get a balance of technology in our homes
How to talk to your child about tech
Mental health and bullying through tech
Talking our life out loud when we’re using our tech
Texting your child at school
Being a role model with how you use tech
The ‘I forgot’ technique
What Emily does to rest and relax
