Free Parent Meeting to Discuss Children's Media Usage

A free parent meeting is set to take place, supported by the city library and made possible by the "Parents and Media" offer from the Landesanstalt fΓΌr Medien NRW and the Family Office of a specific website. The event aims to help parents navigate the complex world of media education, particularly as it pertains to their children's use of platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and apps such as WhatsApp.

Many children today have a personal presence on these platforms, and as they grow older, their media usage expands to include personal smartphone use, social networks, and YouTube. This expansion can lead to questions about age-appropriate internet usage, safe surfing, and whether their child should have a smartphone and use certain apps.

At the parent meeting, Mrs. Yvonne Dengel, who has been invited as a speaker, will discuss these questions and provide answers. The event also offers an opportunity for parents to exchange ideas and share their concerns and experiences.

Registration for the parent meeting can be done at the link: https://beteiligung.nrw.de/k/1013468. For more information about the "Parents and Media" offer, visit www.elternundmedien.de.

The parent meeting is part of a larger initiative to support parents in guiding their children through the digital age. By attending this meeting, parents can gain valuable insights and practical advice to ensure their children's safe and responsible use of technology.
