Podcast Episode 202: Overcoming Digital Parenting Dilemmas with Devorah Heitner
Do you love posting those first-day-of-school pics? How about using those family friendly tracking apps? Ever wonder when it might all be too much?
If you track your kids with Life 360, check their grades online, and/or post pictures of them on social media, this is the episode for you!
We are joined by a very special guest, Devorah Heitner, who is now a two-timer here on the No Guilt Mom podcast! Devorah has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, and CNN Opinion. On top of that, she just released a new book called Growing Up Public! Together we are breaking down the challenges and implications of parents oversharing about their kids online and tracking their kids’ grades through apps. We talk about the reasons why parents feel the pressure to share, how this impacts their children’s privacy and future perceptions, and so much more!
Join us for a thought-provoking conversation with Devorah!
In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast, you’ll learn:
- The pressures parents feel to overshare about their kids online due to societal expectations and the desire for validation.
- The potential negative impact on children when parents share their personal information and images without consent.
- The importance of setting boundaries and seeking permission from older children before sharing their content online.
- The potential downsides of constant grade tracking and how it can turn learning into a gamified experience.
