Technology is one of the most difficult challenges inherent in raising children today. In this BaseCamp Live podcast, Davies Owens and Keith McCurdy discuss how technology impacts mental health and addiction.
Children aren't developing the level of meaningful friendships and social connections that we had to wrestle with and deal with in life. And that also matches statistics we know of young adults, the ones who have the highest loneliness have the highest social media presence. - Keith McCurdy
Davies and Keith also discuss practical solutions for managing technology.

Being wise with technology is crucial. Parents should be mindful of technology use and have a plan.
