Texas PTA Straight Talk '24: Navigating the Smartphone Era
You can watch the video on YouTube by following this link.
Video description:
Through all the uncertainties of parenting in the digital age, one thing is for sure: Smartphones are here to stay. They've unlocked a wealth of knowledge, entertainment, and convenience. But for our children, smartphones have also introduced a bevy of complications for their development and well-being.
Straight Talk '24: Navigating the Smartphone Era was a livestreamed event, hosted by Texas PTA, featuring top-notch panelists discussing how smartphones are impacting our children's minds, bodies, and classrooms.
Some 500 Texas parents, educators, and community members tuned in on February 12, 2024 to watch at one of 40 PTA-hosted watch parties, and from their homes, cars, and places of work. Find more information at txpta.org/straight-talk.
