Tips for Parents
Why Media Role Models Matter:
There's no guarantee that a star will stick to a lifestyle that kids can look up to -- or that you'll approve of. In today's 24/7 media environment, in which kids may be spending more time with media than they are with their parents, choosing positive role models is more important than ever. At Common Sense, we often refer to media as "the other parent" -- that's how much influence it has in your kids' lives. Role models matter. Help your kids find good ones.
