Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Screentime Struggles with Screentime Consultant Emily Cherkin, MEd
Q: How should parents evaluate EdTech and its impact on learning?
Parents should assess EdTech for effectiveness, safety, privacy, legality, and whether it actually enhances learning compared to traditional human instruction; they should push for safer school practices and consider reducing one-to-one devices where appropriate.
Screentime Struggles with Screentime Consultant Emily Cherkin, MEd
Q: What does tech intentional mean, and how does it guide daily parenting?
Tech intentional means using technology in alignment with healthy development and family values, prioritizing relationships and skills over screen use, and choosing smaller, meaningful changes over drastic shifts.
Breaking the Cycle with Posttraumatic Parenting Expert Robyn Koslowitz, PhD
Q: How do you define trauma, and why does it matter for parenting?
Trauma is a threshold that, when exceeded, leaves a lasting but variable imprint on the brain; it's not about weakness but about how the brain processes overwhelming stress, which then influences parenting styles and responses.
Navigating Divorce: Helping Our Children AND Ourselves with Dr. Staci Weiner
Q: How can parents balance telling the truth with not oversharing about the details of the divorce?
Tailor information to the child's developmental level, offer age-appropriate truths, avoid burying the issue, and emphasize safety, love, and that both parents remain committed to the child.
Navigating Divorce: Helping Our Children AND Ourselves with Dr. Staci Weiner
Q: What are the core family stressors that impact kids besides divorce itself?
Beyond divorce, factors like illness, loss, chronic conflict, addiction, financial strain, and housing instability create a broader environment of stress that affects children's development and well-being.
