Life After The Social Media Ban: A practical perspective on young people’s tech use | Project Rockit & Telstra Foundation
The social media ban is in place, but what does life after the ban actually look like for families? If you’re still navigating screen time battles, worrying about online safety or wondering whether the changes are making a difference, you’re not alone.
Facilitated by Dan, parent, author or Adproofing Your Kids, Idolising Children and Head of Projects at PROJECT ROCKIT, alongside members of PROJECT ROCKT’S National Youth Collective. This session goes beyond the headlines to explore what families are actually experiencing and what our conversations and practices as a family should look like now.
With years of hands-on experience working closely with young people, Dan and the NYC members will help unpack concerns about whether the ban is working, what young people think about the changes, and how families can work together to build safer, more balances technology habits.
what you’ll walk away with:
- A clear picture of what the ban means in practice, and what it doesn’t cover.
- Real perspectives on how young people are experiencing the changes.
- Practical ways to work together as a family around technology use and social connection.
- Confidence to have honest, judgement-free conversations about safe and balances tech use.
