Tiger Talks with Dr. Shimi Kang

Location: Virtual
For current YHS parents
Please join us on Tuesday, November 24 at 6:30 pm for our first Tiger Talks of the school year with parent Dr. Shimi Kang: Tech, COVID, & Your Daughters: Reset Your Home for Healthy Habits. RSVP here.

On average, pre-teens and teenagers are checking their phone over 150 times/day and spending about 7 hours/day on screens, unrelated to school and homework – and this was before the pandemic. These rates skyrocketed during the lockdown and now children, teens, and adults are relying on screens more than ever before. Given technology’s links to problems like burn-out, anxiety, addiction, and cyberbullying; parents must now reset their family’s tech habits towards solutions for learning, connection, self-care, and adaptability.   

Join psychiatrist, best-selling author and York House School mom, Dr. Shimi Kang MD for an interactive webinar where you will learn:
  • How technology is impacting your child’s brain, body, and behavior.
  • How does social media affect girls and strategies to help address the impact of social media on mental health.
  • How to differentiate between healthy, stressful, and potentially addictive tech experiences.
  • How to reset your family’s tech habits for a successful school year ahead.  
  • Guidelines to maintain healthy tech habits in your home during the pandemic and beyond
Given the number of people expected to participate, we would like to invite families to share their questions in advance of the presentation.

Log in to myYHS to RSVP, submit questions, and for Zoom details.
