In this conversation Brenda and Amelia talk about the unique joys and challenges of raising Generation Z teens and young adults. In this episode you’ll find encouragement to:
✅ Support and understand this generation that has the potential to shape the world for good.
✅Recognize how they are coming of age during a pandemic.
✅Understand some of the differences between the generations and how growing up in the “wake” of the Millennial generation influences Generation Z.
✅See how their inherent understanding and use of technology can be a strength and see their screen time differently.
✅ Not put negative expectations on their behavior or technology use based on what it represented a decade ago.
✅ Recognize the challenge of parenting Generation Z in finding the balance of technology use and learning basic life skills, playing, or having relationships face-to-face.
✅ Shift your expectations of what you think they should already know and don’t put them down for what they don’t know.
✅Learn things from them and let them teach you what they know about the world, technology, and culture.
✅Adapt life principles as they grow.
