🔑 Key Takeaways:
Social media has pro’s and con’s:
- Build A Foundation: Be open with your children about Social Media, both the good and the bad to create a base of trust and understanding.
- 5:1 Rule: There are going to be negative interactions sometimes with your child. Try practicing 5 positive things (can be small) to every one negative emotion that pops up.
- How To Spot Possible Cyberbullying: Look for signs like fear or anxiety when using a smart device or even avoidance of devices. Encourage your kids to speak up if they feel uncomfortable online.
