Mission
Parenting is evolving, and the traditional role models and methods we once relied on are no longer sufficient to guide us through the complexities of raising children in a digital age.
Today, we are overwhelmed with scientific research, half truths and and knowledge about child development and digital media. Many of us find ourselves too overwhelmed and time-constrained to digest and implement this information effectively.
My mission at Digital Parenting Labs is to bridge this gap by translating the latest scientific insights into actionable, proactive strategies that empower parents to not only react to the challenges technology poses but to anticipate and embrace them with confidence.
I aim to shift the paradigm from reactive to proactive digital parenting, helping parents become leaders in their children’s digital experiences rather than bystanders.
We must move away from the ostrich approach—burying our heads in the sand, hoping to avoid the complexities of digital parenting.
Instead, let us lift our heads and open our eyes to the tools and knowledge available.
Lets ask ourselves question!
It is my goal to guide parents in harnessing these resources, turning the digital age into an opportunity for growth and positive development for our children.
At Digital Parenting Labs, we recognize that what we create today in digital parenting practices, our children will mimic in the future. This is why we are committed to innovating and testing new approaches, building a foundation of digital fluency and responsibility that will echo through generations.
Let’s embrace the challenge of modern parenting together, informed, prepared, and proactive.
