Perhaps you bought a new technology device for your son or daughter this summer. What rules accompanied the new device? It is a good idea to make contracts with your child about the use of technology. Three tips for contracts:
- Create the contract with your child. You may have non-negotiable expectations but make sure that there is some opportunity for your child to provide input into the rules.
- Provide guidance on how to use the technology safely and responsibly.
- Model the behavior that you expect your child to demonstrate when using your own technology.
What do you think about this mom’s approach. Is it too much or just enough?
