Parents Need New Skills in Today's World

I apologize but I don't know that your

son needs our program I think maybe you

need our point and then the parent says

no no I don't need anything I'm not the

one with the problem my son is the one

with the problem and we say well we beg

to differ we've done five or six

research studies on this and what we

discovered is that if your son is having

trouble with technology you're probably

the one who needs to learn particular

skills and this is the unfortunate truth

is that parents are on the front line

you can't expect your 15 year old to

regulate their video game addiction you

can't expect the game developer or the

government or even pediatricians or

teachers to solve the problem and so

what we've really discovered is that

parents need new skills that they didn't

need before because if you think about

how do we learn how to be parents we

learn what our parents use with us well

when our parents were raising us they

didn't have to deal with technology

addiction this is a new thing and what

we're really discovering is that parents

do need to learn a new set of skills to

be effective in today's modern day and

age
