The Parent Venture: Growing Up in Public - Coming of Age in Digital World

The Parent Venture: Growing Up in Public - Coming of Age in Digital World

Join the Parent Venture and Dr. Devorah Heitner for their upcoming Growing Up in Public: Coming of Age in Digital World event. In her new book, Growing Up in Public, digital media expert Dr. Devorah Heitner shows parents how to help tweens and teens navigate boundaries, identity, privacy, and reputation in their digital world.

Drawing on her extensive work with parents and schools as well as hundreds of interviews with kids, parents, educators, clinicians, and scholars, Heitner offers strategies for parenting our kids in an always-connected world. With relatable stories and research-backed advice, Growing Up in Public empowers parents to cut through the overwhelm to connect with their kids, recognize how to support them, and help them figure out who they are when everyone is watching.

This event is sponsored by generous donors from the Mills-Peninsula Hospital Foundation and the San Mateo County Office of Education, in partnership with The Parent Venture.
