With summer in full swing, it's the perfect opportunity to catch up on any of my Screenagers’ Tech Talk Tuesdays you may have missed (I know today is Wednesday, not Tuesday, but I wanted to respect the holiday). 

During the school year, there are scores of obligations to attend to. Hopefully, things have slowed a bit, and you can grab a glass of iced tea and read from this curated list of my most-read blog posts from the last 12 months:

  1. HAVE YOUR PHONE WHEN YOU OPEN THIS
  2. 5 WAYS TO RESPOND WHEN TECH RULES GET BROKEN
  3. ADDRESSING BURNOUT IN PARENTING
  4. 7 PODCASTS I RECOMMEND FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY THIS SUMMER
  5. A “WEED TALK” MADE EASY
  6. 3 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT SOCIAL MEDIA AND VAPING
  7. WHY OUR NEW FILM HAS MY HEART JUMPING
  8. 3 WAYS TO NOT LET ANXIETY HIJACK YOUR PARENTING
  9. MY FAMILY STORY OF MENTAL ILLNESS
  10. MY SUMMER READING, WATCHING, LISTENING LIST

7 Podcasts I Recommend for The Whole Family This Summer

In today’s blogcast, I share recommendations for podcasts that you can listen to with your family this summer. So why these recommendations? Well, one of the objectives of the screenagers movement is finding ways to connect youth and adults for meaningful conversations, not just about tech in our lives, but ways to help build in our kids' critical thinking, empathy, communication skills, and I’m just a strong believer that listening to podcasts together and then discussing them can be a really terrific way to do that. It's also a way to celebrate one of the pearls of our tech revolution: the ability of people to become podcasters and to share science, stories, advice, and more. Read today’s blog for a list of podcasts I recommend.

If you are interested in learning more about how to host it this spring or fall, you can fill out a quick form on the blog page, and we’ll reach out shortly. In the meantime, I encourage you to check out "The Screenagers Podcast," where I explore strategies for raising screen-wise and tech-balanced youth.
