Kids And Social Media: Wall Program Has Advice For Parents

WALL, NJ — Setting limits on how your child is exposed to social media can be challenging for parents.

But moms and dads can find some guidance Thursday night at two workshops, sponsored by the Wall Alliance.

"Setting Healthy Boundaries with Social Media & Technology" - an Integrated Cares Concepts workshop - will take place Thursday, March 30, at the Wall Intermediate School Auditorium, 2801 Allaire Road.

The first workshop is for parents of "tweens" in 4th through 6th grade and takes place from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.

A workshop for parents of teens in 7th grade through high school will take place from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.

All parents are welcome to attend one or both sessions, the district said.

The Wall Alliance presents programs in the community to decrease the use of drug and alcohol use in youth and to help prevent the abuse of substances in our community.

The Alliance works closely with the Wall Youth Center and Community Services, the Township Committee and Mayor, the Police Department, the Board of Education and the Substance Abuse Counselors in the schools.
