Summary: For Beyond 50's "Parenting" talks, listen to an interview with Katie Schumacher. She'll talk about the importance of an education in cyber civics. "We have to help our children push past the emotional barrier that the screen creates and internalize that on the other side of it is another living, breathing, feeling human being; a person who must be treated with kindness. Online or off, the rules should be the same. If you aren't comfortable saying something face to face, then you should not be posting that online or texting it to them," explained Schumacher. For parents, you'll learn to give cell phone directives; strategies that will help to create a kind cyber community by strengthening children's empathetic skills; how to embrace a healthy balance with technology by teaching kids to being mindful before they press send on a post; and more. Children feel safe, secure, and less anxious when they know what the rules are, irrevocably.
