Parents are now dealing with virtual education, but that means its even more critical that they prioritize social and emotional connections after the school days are over or during the"If you aren't paying for the product...you ARE the product." Watch this new documentary on Netflix "The Social Dilemma" WITH YOUR FAMILY and see what rich conversation it can generate between you and your kids. I loved the powerful insights from behind the scenes of social media giants like the Founding Father of Virtual Reality and the co-inventor of the Like Button. But there is "drama" to it that might get a rise out of your teens. Model calm and productive conversation, listen well, and you'll all learn something about the truth behind the algorithms!
