Should Kids Socialize Through Technology?

The MAVEN Parent Podcast - A podcast by Brett and Erin Kunkle - Tuesdays

How our kids “hang out” nowadays is a lot different than when we were growing up. Instead of going outside to play or spending time face-to-face, they constantly chat over text or play video games online while talking to friends with a headset. But should we let them? If so, how much of their socializing should be mediated through screens and technology? Does socialization through technology have an impact on their mental health? In this episode, Brett and Erin think biblically about what it means to be human and how a Christian worldview informs how approach to socialization via technology, and then offer some practical steps parents can take.
