About the Training: Raising Digital‑Resilient Kids – Faith, Tech & Family Boundaries

Are screens shaping your kids more than you are?

If you’re a parent in 2025, you already know how much influence technology has on your kids’ hearts, minds, and daily rhythms.

You see it:

  • The battles over devices and gaming

  • The mood swings when screens are taken away

  • The constant scrolling and social media pressure

  • The loss of face‑to‑face family connection

And maybe you’ve thought: "I know we need boundaries… but where do I even start?"

That’s exactly why we created this 1‑hour online training.

 

Why This Matters Now

Recent research (CDC, UCSF, AAP) shows that:

  • Half of U.S. teens spend 4+ hours/day on screens

  • 1 in 4 report symptoms of anxiety and depression tied to screen time

  • Pre‑teens average 5½ hours of non‑educational screen use every day

Screens aren’t going away. But you can help your kids develop the resilience, self‑control, and faith foundation they need to thrive in a digital world.

For just $20, you’ll receive:
✅ Live, interactive online training (1‑hour) on Thursday, August 7th at 8 PM (Eastern)

What You’ll Learn

  • How screens impact your child’s mental health, behavior, and faith

Why Faith & Family Values Matter

This isn’t just about cutting screen time. It’s about raising kids who are:

  • Rooted in their faith

  • Confident in who they are

  • Able to navigate technology wisely
