NOTE

Empower with Community, Not Surveillance

Constant surveillance by parents is detrimental to young people's development and privacy. The belief that vigilant monitoring equates to good parenting undermines the value of communal relationships. Parents should recognize that educators, coaches, and other adults can support and advocate for their children, promoting a sense of belonging and healthy relationships outside the home. By fostering connections with caring adults, children can better navigate the challenges of social media and technology, ultimately reducing dependency on their phones and aiding in their emotional and social growth.
