Using images, graphs, videos, and references to resources, Ms. Sónia laid out some strategies that may help families approach these issues with their children.

Some Elementary parents may well be facing the dilemma of whether or not to give a child a cell phone. If your child hasn't asked yet, the request is surely coming, and probably sooner than you think! This presentation is designed to help parents set guidelines and parameters for age appropriate use of a cell phone.
