A Discussion With Dr. Catherine Pearlman About First Phones and More
Girls That Create host Erin Prather Stafford and Dr. Catherine Pearlman discuss a question all parents and caregivers must face: When should I give my child their first phone? Dr. Pearlman is the author of "First Phone: A Child's Guide to Digital Responsibility, Safety, and Etiquette".
In this episode, they also chat about:
- Why Dr. Pearlman wrote First Phone with the audience being kids themselves
- That parents need to have confidence in their kids and the choices they make
- Modeling healthy phone behavior for kids and teaching them to manage technology
- What to do when your child makes an online mistake
- Understanding data and not fearing it
Girls That Create also interviewed Dr. Pearlman for our Parenting Section when First Phone was released.
