Parenting in the Digital Age: Meet Apparently
Jul 1, 2025
You’re sitting at the dinner table, trying to connect, asking about their day, maybe sneaking in a light moment. But your child is locked into their screen, absorbed in a world you can’t quite see.
Maybe you’ve heard them mention a comment from a group chat that landed wrong. Maybe you’ve caught yourself wondering what’s really happening in the digital spaces they move through every day. If any of that sounds familiar, you're not alone. Parenting has always come with challenges, but today’s challenges are different. Our kids are growing up in a world that is always connected, always on, and often invisible to the adults trying to guide them. As parents, we’re navigating something entirely new: a culture where digital habits, emotional development, and social pressure intersect in real time.

This Isn’t Just About Screens
Yes, this world offers incredible opportunities. Technology has the power to inspire, educate, and connect. But it also reshapes the landscape of parenting. We’re no longer just managing routines or values; we’re learning to support children who live both online and offline, often simultaneously.
That shift brings with it a new kind of complexity. How do we set healthy boundaries around screens without turning daily life into a negotiation? How do we stay involved in our children’s digital lives without intruding? How do we talk about mental health, self-image, and belonging in ways that are rooted in empathy, not fear?
These aren’t just tech problems. They’re parenting questions. And for too long, there hasn’t been a single, integrated place to turn for support that’s both credible and compassionate.
