In this Friday Night Family event, we watch and discuss a documentary about how tech time impacts children’s development and what solutions we can implement as adults to empower our children to navigate the digital world best to find balance.

Following the documentary screening, Ustadha Hosai Mojaddidi asks questions, shars her thoughts, and we learn from others in the community.
