Being a parent in today’s society can seem more challenging than before. While we are raising our kids, it seems that technology plays a role in raising them as well. We’re currently in a generation where screentime is only increasing, causing us to be more hands on with our children in order to give them a healthy balance of tech and outdoor skills. Technology is constantly evolving, and it can be challenging to keep up with the latest trends, which is why we recommend using a parental control app to help your child safely navigate technology. Below you’ll see 3 benefits of using a parental control app.
SAFETY IN TECH
When it comes to the safety of our children, there’s no better way to stay ahead of technology than to be a tech user yourself. Being able to have a parental control app to help safeguard your family communication is key. A smartwatch for kids is the best way to put in place your parental guidelines because it allows you to stay safely connected with a parent app that keeps you in the driver’s seat in this digital age of parenting. Parental control apps can help you limit screen time, approve & block contacts, set reminders, track your child’s location & more. For young children, technology should be introduced by their parents or guardian, allowing for a proper foundation and expectations to be set.
PEACE OF MIND
Having peace of mind as a parent may be one of the things that is difficult to maintain consistently. We’re always going to worry, stress or over-think about the many possibilities when our children are not in our site. Using a parent app to stay connected with your child through communication methods, GPS Location Tracking or even being able to set boundaries for them gives an immense amount of peace of mind that as a parent, you will truly appreciate. You also get the peace of mind knowing that your child is navigating technology safely, with no internet, games or social media to distract them throughout their day.
FOUNDATION SETTING
By using a parent app, you can properly set clear rules and boundaries around technology and screen time. Limit the amount of time your child spends on apps, have specific times when screens are not allowed, and establish a cut-off time for screen use before bedtime. Our TickTalk 5 Kids Smartwatch has Focus Mode, allowing parents to choose when to enable the feature for their child. This has helped parents create boundaries and limits for their kids. Consistency is key when it comes to implementing these boundaries.
