Bite Sized Advice

Welcome to the Survival Guides You Didn’t Know You Needed
(Because handing your kid a smartphone is basically handing them the internet… what could go wrong?)
So, your child may be begging for a phone and you don’t know what to do. Are they ready? Are YOU ready? How would you even know?
Each child is different but the same questions can be asked of your children (and yourselves) about what behaviours to expect and when to say ‘no, this isn’t the way we are going to do this in our house’.
If you’re wondering how to keep them from turning into a screen-obsessed zombie or texting total strangers, you are not alone.
The Wired Parent’s Bite Sized Guides are here to help you navigate the digital jungle without losing your sanity.
Here, you’ll find real-world advice on choosing the right phone, setting boundaries, keeping communication safe and figuring out whether your kid is even ready for this level of responsibility (spoiler: maybe not yet).
Scroll down, click on what you need and get prepped for digital-age parenting.
