Cell phones and social media are impacting all of us – especially our children.  Two leading experts in the field join us in this episode to break down what that affect is from a neurological aspect, and how criminals are utilizing cell phones for the sexploitation and manipulation of our children.

Dr. John Condie is a medical doctor practicing at St. Luke’s Health System specializing in child neurology.

Officer David Gomez is at the forefront of educating parents and youth about the dangers of social media on electronic devices. He was a School Resource Officer in West Ada for years and is now an SRO in Idaho City.

This is not an easy listen, but we believe it’s a necessary conversation in terms of understanding the impact and dangers of social media in the lives of our kids and ourselves.

We want to hear from you!  How are you dealing with social media in your home?  How can our community best utilize technology while mitigating the dangers?  Send us an email at communicate@westada.org.
