Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Sometimes there are programs that are easily accessible to Hanover
residents that are too good and too important to not share. So, I am
bending my “Hanover events only” rule and sending this along!
Social Media and Socializing: Helping your kids feel and function their
best on screen and off
Sunday, March 17th, 7:30 p.m. – With Director of the Massachusetts
Aggression Reduction Center at Bridgewater State University Dr. Elizabeth
Englander via Zoom (only)
Before the pandemic, screen use, anxiety, and social problems (like
bullying and fighting) were top concerns for parents. The last few years
have made some of these issues even more challenging. This talk will
examine how kids are doing emotionally and socially, in light of the ways
kids use screens, gaming, and social media, and how these impact challenges
in school, like bullying and friendship skills. Research will be
summarized, and practical approaches to family life that can help children
develop emotional resilience, healthy social skills and friendships, and
sensible screen and social media habits will be discussed during this
presentation. Dr. Englander will discuss how to move forward to a healthier
“new normal” and how to help parents be most productive in guiding their
children towards a full social and emotional recovery.
