Protect Young Eyes
Thank you to everyone who joined us on Monday, September 8 at 6:30 PM for the Protect Young Eyes: Parent Presentation.
Mental Health & Tech: Understanding Fabulous and Fragile Brains
(Parents and Caring Adults Only)
Do you have a device close by right now? Pick it up, and marvel at the tech in your hands. An iPhone can complete 5 trillion operations per second and handle over 120 million Apollo moon missions simultaneously. It’s no wonder any human, particularly our amazing kids, can be both intrigued and exploited.
Recent Sapien Labs research indicates that smartphone and social media use, especially before age 13, is linked to lower mental health scores and increased risks of emotional and behavioral problems. The research highlights concern about cyberbullying, poor family relationships, and disrupted sleep, which can negatively impact a child's mental well-being. Which all makes a ton of sense when you understand the developing brain.
In this 90-minute session, you’ll learn:
● The three FUNCTIONAL AREAS of the human brain.
● Why Snapchat is a turbo-charged, NEUROLOGICAL BEAST
● Why 72% OF TEENS are already using AI companions (and what that means for your family).
● How to CORRECT out-of-control tech use.
● Why every home needs 5 LAYERS of protection in the AI Age.
