Description

In this episode, Jessica and I discuss all those apps on your smart phone geared towards kids and "family."  Have you ever given thought to how companies are targeting children, which can affect how you decide to ultimately parent your child?  Children's brains change so drastically over a short period of time and technology is not always improving those changes. We are not saying all kid-friendly apps are the enemy. There are some great ones out there being used by educational experts and health practitioners. What we are telling you in this episode is to be mindful as a parent as to how much exposure the little people in your life have to this kind of technology.
