Steve Baskin
It's a worry for every millennial parent, but good news!: your children don’t have to slip from a healthy play-based childhood into today’s toxic phone-based world. There is another way! Learn how to navigate this tough transition on Sunday, March 23, during Discipleship Hour at 10:10, and in a more in-depth conversation that evening at 5:00 pm. Based on many of the ideas put forth by Jonathan Haidt in his best-selling book The Anxious Generation, and on his own observations of thousands of children over 30 years, Steve Baskin has tools for parents to help protect their children in a world full of online worries and general anxiety. Steve owns summer camps, has written for Psychology Today, has contributed to numerous podcasts, and has even given a TED Talk on this subject. Parents will leave knowledgeable about the dangers of social media and technology, feel confident in modeling for their kids "real life living", and armed with tools for protecting and guiding their children into their next chapters. Additionally, we will discuss collective action steps that we as a Christian community can take to protect our children. Join us, and invite your friends!
