Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we dive into Santiago Duran Mejia’s article, where he challenges five common myths about parenting and technology, drawing from his personal experience raising his son in a digitally connected world.Duran argues that technology and media are not inherently harmful to children; rather, their impact depends on parental guidance and active involvement. Through personal anecdotes, he illustrates how early and mindful exposure to technology can actually enhance learning, communication, and skill development, as long as parents set clear values and encourage critical thinking.Instead of strict control, the conversation explores the importance of teaching children to navigate technology with purpose, turning potentially passive tools into opportunities for creativity and growth.Support My WorkI love sharing insights, ideas, and experiences that spark conversations and inspire new perspectives.
