Youth and technology have always gone hand in hand, but what does that look like now? This infographic explores the relationship between youth and technology and offers advice on how parents can best support their children when using these tools.<\/p>\n

Understand the Importance of Digital Citizenship.<\/h2>\n

Today\u2019s youth are growing up in an age where technology has become ubiquitous. As such, it\u2019s essential that we teach them how to use technology safely and responsibly. In order to do so, we must first understand the importance of digital citizenship.<\/p>\n

Build Relationships with Young People.<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s not enough to simply teach young people how to use technology; we also need to build relationships with them. This means being open to feedback and learning from mistakes. We should also make sure our interactions with young people are positive and encouraging.<\/p>\n

Be Authentic and Relevant.<\/h2>\n

Young people are often more comfortable with technology than adults. They are also more likely to share personal experiences online. So when interacting with young people, try to be authentic and relevant. Don\u2019t assume anything about them based on age or gender.<\/p>\n

Understand the Importance of Youth Culture.<\/h2>\n

Youth culture has changed dramatically since the 1950s. Today, young people are much more diverse than ever before. This means that we need to understand not only the differences between generations but also the differences within each generation.<\/p>\n

Create an Online Presence for Yourself.<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re looking to engage youth online, there are several ways to do so. You can start by creating a website or blog where you share your thoughts and opinions. You can also use social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and Tumblr to connect with others. Finally, you can create a YouTube account and upload videos related to your interests.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
