Raising Children in the Digital World

i got to see Gordon Neufeld speak in Cranbrook last year when i volunteered at the Leading Our Kids with Heart 3-day event put on by Life Roots Consulting. he is absolutely inspiring and my parenting expert of choice. it you haven't ready his book, Hold onto Your Kids, it is an amazing read. interesting to see his perspective on the digital age!

i really want to remember... "eyes, smile, nod" - when i saw him speak, he said that it is the key before asking anything from your munchkins.

he quotes Sherry Turkle and her book Alone Together. Here she is a little more about her thoughts on how technology is shaping our relationships.
