Smart Talk Helps You and Your Child Agree on How to Use Your Smartphone
Smartphones are a part of life these days, and if your child is not using them now, they will probably start using them soon. But with a good device comes a lot of responsibility. Smart Talk is a website that helps parents and children come up with a set of telephone rules together and creates a user-friendly printable agreement.
This tool is more than a simple checklist; it is designed to start a conversation between you and your child. For example, in the section on how to properly share information on social media, the tool invites you to talk about how you would feel if someone shared an embarrassing photo. The tool also includes simple instructions that each of you can check out. For example: “Mom, do you agree not to overreact if Adam needs to discuss something important with you?”
The whole process takes only a few minutes. When you’re done, print out the contract and hang it on the refrigerator. Follow the link below to get started.
