Hey y'all, welcome back to the Don't Mom Alone podcast. I'm your host, Heather McFadian.

And this is the place where I get to walk alongside you and connect you with people

and resources so you know that you don't mom alone. And we're doing a little series

here on Don't Mom Alone to help you out with your tech woes. My guest today episode

424 is Founder of Protect Young Eyes. Chris McKenna. That influences our parenting

and it influences the way that we deal with technology from more of a position of fear

and control as opposed to a position of relationship, connection, confidence. I think

as parents who did not grow up in a digital age, we have a lot of fears around technology

and sometimes in those fears we either shut everything out or we give up. And I want

to help equip you with a great resource. Someone who is on the front lines in the

know on everything technology who came about his role. He was a CPA, he was a youth pastor

and he saw the need to help parents navigate and create safe digital spaces. Chris McKenna

came on the show, Episode 360. We linked that in the show notes. If you want to hear more

from Chris, we also have a great episode from Andy Crouch in the show notes, Episode

208 and David Thomas. We want to kind of curate all the episodes we have done on technology

and help equip you in today's conversation. Chris shares a great set of tools to help

our kids to start connecting with them around technology to be transparent and honest. He's

always super concrete. Real quick announcement before we get to the show for my Dallas friends

who are listening. One of my sons, good friends from school, Pike, was diagnosed a month

ago with a type, an aggressive type of leukemia that is requiring a bone marrow transplant

to literally save his life. And so we need your help. They're having an event Sunday, August

27th at Park City's Baptist Church to register donors, bone marrow, blood stem cell donors.
