Summary | It is important to involve parents in their children's education so that it continues after school is over. A way to do this is to assign homework that involves parents or involve parents in a school day. However, not all parents have time for this because they work a lot. Another way to keep parents involved in their children's schoolwork is sharing it with them on social media. There are programs to share photos or classwork videos with parents.

Summary | Silicon Valley's parents explain how they deal with their children's use of internet. Since parents cannot control everything or spy on their kids, they talk to them and teach them how to use the internet. Some parents have more restrictions; for example, no screens from Friday night to Saturday night. As a result, parents and children spend more time together and do fun activities. Other parents only let ther children go online with an adult's supervision. A psychologist claims that social media have a negative impact on children; they drive them away from family and school.
