In today's rapidly evolving world, video gaming and social media play a significant role in the lives of children and teenagers. While these platforms offer numerous benefits, they also present challenges that parents may struggle to address effectively. Many parents express concerns about excessive screen time, cyberbullying, online privacy, and the impact of violent or inappropriate content on their children's well-being.
Recognizing the need for comprehensive support, HUSD has partnered with Legacy Health Foundation to provide parents with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate the digital realm responsibly and foster a healthy relationship between their children and technology.
By equipping parents with the necessary knowledge and resources, we aim to promote a balanced approach that allows children to enjoy the benefits of digital engagement while mitigating potential risks.
