"Well said, Eric. It is important to recognize that everything is relative and listening more than talking is an excellent suggestion!"
"Great question and follow up conversation.
I agree with so much that has been shared.
First. More is caught than is taught. We have to model well.
Second. Distracted listening is great with teens. When you are driving, you aren't…"

Secret to communicating with Kids and Teenagers?
What is the secret to communicating with teenagers when you need them to understand something important?I write about issues relating to use of technology and social media and I'd like to tell everyone that I have perfect kids that follow all I preach about. But that would be a lie - my kids have been known to do the very things I warn against.

- Family is the highest priority to me and I love the time I spend with my hubby and sons.
The geek in me keeps me interested in technology related stuff, but unlike typical geeks, I make lots of mistakes which I share with others so they don't have to make the same ones.
I do this by researching, writing and speaking about Cyber safety and Cyber privacy and I bring awareness to current issues by sharing them along with suggestions and solutions.

How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:(mrsstellaabudheir@gmail.com ) for the full details.
Have a nice day
Thanks God bless.
Stella.
