From managing group chats to navigating online friendships, our students share how they make thoughtful choices in a constantly connected world and what they wish adults better understood about growing up online.
Throughout the discussion, Solomon and the students explore practical strategies that parents can use at home, including:
-
Starting early: Having ongoing, non-judgmental conversations about online habits before problems arise.
-
Focusing on trust, not control: Setting clear boundaries while giving children space to make responsible choices.
-
Modeling balance: Showing kids that healthy tech use starts with adults who also put their devices down.
As Sarafina and Thomas remind us, digital citizenship isn’t just about safety, it’s about empathy, responsibility, and understanding the impact of our actions online.
Tune in to hear how students are taking the lead in shaping a positive digital culture at WAB and how families can join them in the journey.
