Counseling Speaker Series: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Impacted Everything + What We Can Do About It
How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Impacted Everything + What We Can Do About It
Jonathan Haidt, Author & Social Psychologist
Jonathan Haidt wrote The Anxious Generation with a firm belief that the challenges confronting our children and our families are solvable. However, addressing these challenges requires understanding the traps we have fallen into, so we can see the escape routes. The main escape routes are four new norms: delay smartphones until high school, delay social media until 16, phone-free schools, and more independence and play in the real world. Haidt will share the research that underpins the book and leave parents with inspiration and concrete plans to facilitate change in their families and communities. All are welcome.
