SUMMARY:Kids Brains and Screens
DESCRIPTION:Smartphones\, social media\, and video games are shaping our children’s brains\, desires\, and relationships in ways most parents never anticipated. Research shows that the habits our kids form around screens today will define the adults they become. The good news is that families who act with intention can nurture what matters most. \nJoin us on Thursday\, April 23 at 6:30 PM at the Oak Ridge Conference Center for an evening with Doug Smith\, ScreenStrong Ambassador and award-winning author of [Un]Intentional: How Screens Secretly Shape Your Desires\, and How You Can Break Free. Doug brings over three decades of experience as a software developer alongside years of research into how technology affects the developing brain. He has seen the strategies Big Tech uses from the inside\, and he will share practical\, evidence-based wisdom to help your family avoid screen dependency and thrive in the real world. \nThis event is for parents and teens alike. You will leave with real strategies for building a family culture that puts healthy relationships\, purpose\, and freedom ahead of the next notification. \nThis evening is sponsored by Chesterton Academy of Saint Margaret Clitherow\, We believe the best preparation for a complex world is a richer humanity\, that can use technology as a tool rather than serve it. \nRegistration is free. Space is limited. Sign up today.
