Parenting Resources
I will be adding this section to my weekly newsletter that will provide a different article or resource each week that you may or may not find pertains to you and your family. Even if a resource does not pertain today, you may find that it is a resource in the future.
This week I am attaching a link for an article about how the technology available in our society has affected our children. There are so many great opportunities and resources available for our children educationally through technology; however, this article does provide an interesting perspective about the parts of technology use that we should be aware of.
