We’ve got your parent meeting covered! All you need to do is Just Add Parents.

This product is available as either a digital download or packaged on a physical USB drive. Please select the appropriate version you’d like in the drop-down menu below.

Each installment in the “Just Add Parents’ series addresses a topic of interest and need related to the pressures children and teens face in today’s youth culture.

“Tech-Sensible Parenting” is designed to raise the awareness of technology’s life-shaping role for children and teens, inform parents of some of the “danger zones,” and equip them to prepare their kids to engage with technology in positive Christ-centered ways.
