When it comes to bringing up kids in the digital age, we’ve spoken about the dangers of devices as well as the creativity of coding — so it’s only natural that we dive into the world of gaming and social media too!

Lend your ears to this incredibly insightful chat with two moms of children on the spectrum, Chantell Witbooi and Faces of Felicity’s Julie Hendricks.
