Having “the tech talk” with kids can be daunting, especially given how quickly the tech landscape changes. Christine and Asha talk about essential topics to cover with kids (e.g., tech safety, screen time) as well as key things to consider (e.g., building trust, modeling behavior) as the first generation of parents contending with the Internet, mobile devices, and social media.
