We want our kids to make 'good choices'…
but we’re often doing the thinking for them.

When we lead with our opinions, there’s little room left for them to question, explore, or find their own way.

What if we stepped back – and learned how to walk alongside them instead?

That and many other tools are what we unpack in Social Media Sorted – real everyday guidance to help you support your kids well in this social space.

Most of us are parenting this without much of a roadmap… so we made you one.

📌 You can sit through another talk.⁠
📌 Save another free guide.⁠
📌 Tell yourself you’ll “get to it.”⁠

Or… you can actually get sorted.

Real experts. Practical tools. No fluff. No overwhelm.

For now, later, or whenever socials land in your house 🏡 – know what to say and what to do.

Less time than two Netflix eps. Promise.

Stop winging it.

So you’re still weighing up social media and now ‘you’re the worst parent ever!’

😅 Welcome to the club.

Feeling left out can seem like agony to our kids - hard watching on as a parent too! To smooth the way, we’ve created a FREE guide on what to say when they're feeling left out.

Comment ‘SOCIAL’ to get this FREE script download.

It's one tool from our new online course, Social Media Sorted: A parent's guide. See the course ➡️ https://hub.parentingplace.nz/courses/socialmedia

You want to be their biggest influence? Time to get some social skills.

If you’re in the “not just yet” camp…
or suddenly knee-deep in group chats, TikToks and “but everyone else has it” 😅 our Social Media Sorted course is for you.

- Know what to say (without sounding like a lecture)
- Know what to do (without going full panic mode)

‘Lean into the discomfort of asking for help’

THAT is a lesson for all of us. Whether it’s putting your hand up before you drown in the mental load, or owning the pain you’ve avoided for so long, we all struggle with the whakama/shame of asking for a hand 🫱🏽‍🫲🏼
