RAR #244: How to Give Your Kids What Technology Cant, Erin Loechner

Published: June 27, 2024, 7 a.m.

How can our families cultivate healthy relationships with technology?\xa0


We\u2019re all trying to impose limits on how, when, and why our kids interact with technology. But in our increasingly tech-driven world, it can be hard to navigate.


Writer Erin Loechner is joining me on the podcast to discuss her new book, The Opt-Out Family, and to offer her life-giving take on building lasting connections with your kids.\xa0


We discuss everything from the importance of boredom to Erin\u2019s practical and easy-to-implement advice for becoming unplugged. I hope this conversation leaves you inspired to pursue a life less documented and more delightful!


In this episode, you\u2019ll hear:\xa0

  • What we can learn from tech about capturing our kids\u2019 attention\xa0
  • Why our kids need more space for curiosity, wonder, and boredom (and how our phones tend to get in the way)
  • Why you don\u2019t have to be all-or-nothing with technology\xa0
