WSC Parents

Are you curious about what (if anything) your child is doing on social media sites such as Facebook?

Have you asked yourself whether you should let your child see a certain movie, play the latest video / online game, or Instant Message with friends for hours?

Would you like to discuss these issues with other parents struggling with some of the same concerns?

Attend the WSC /Common Sense Media Workshop

Raising Middle and High School Kids

in a

Digital World

We know that these issues are important to WSC parents, so over the coming months we are going to offer a new program to support parents in managing their kids’ 24/7 media lives. At the workshops we’ll answer all your questions about what your kids are seeing and doing, how they communicate, and what impacts media in their lives can have on their development. Most importantly, we’ll provide simple tips and tools about what you can do to raise your kids to be safe, smart, and responsible media users and creators.

This program is designed by Common Sense Media, the leading non-partisan, non-profit organization dedicated to helping families find the right media for them. By providing parents with the information they need to make informed choices about the entire media landscape, Common Sense Media has become a powerful ally to help parents remain the primary influence in their kids’ lives.  The next workshop dates are
