How Much Technology is Too Much? A Lecture by Dr. Michael Rich, aka “The Mediatrician”

The Leventhal-Sidman Jewish Community Center (333 Nahanton
Street) in Newton will be hosting a lecture by Dr.
Michael Rich, aka “The Mediatrician” on Wednesday, November 13 (7:30pm) for
parents interested in the impact of technology on children and families. Tablets,
cell phones and interactive “apps” and video games are now a ubiquitous part of
family life. Is this good or bad?  How
much should a parent encourage or limit screen time? Dr. Michael Rich, a
parent, pediatrician and associate professor at Harvard Medical School will
share resources and strategies to help raise happy and healthy kids.
