Blog Review – Connect With Your Teens Through Pop Culture and Technology
I know several women online who are moms and who use internet to stay updated with the right purpose of educating their children in the best way possible, but they often have to face problems due to the differences of generation and sometimes this ends up disheartening them.
Well, from now on, with the blog which I am about to review, you will have a great help in accomplishing your aim!
In fact, Connect with your Teens through Pop Culture and Technology wants to help parents to keep up with the modern society to stay connected with their teenage children.
Its owner, Jennifer, is obviously a mom of teens who is addicted to pop culture and has learnt to be tech-savvy for her jobs; she has both an MLS and a JD degrees, worked for years in the field of the internet research, especially as academic law librarian. She was also the coordinator of a conference program called "Multitasking Millennials" and had the chance to run a computer school for kids; now she is working at the Paley Center for Media in NY.
This varied background taught successfully Jennifer the right way to explore the differences occurred in offline and online media and technology during the years, analyzing the development from past to present and imagining the future, all with the steady belief that a meeting-point for teens and parents is really possible to have a better dialogue, which can generate a better understanding between the generations and obviously allows to have more serene and conscious relationships.
Jennifer creates a totally original content, using often her own experience and memories to introduce the topics of her entries. Her reader immediately realizes that she pays extreme attention to every detail of the subjects which she examines, always finding the best connections to face and solve the problems due to the change of society during the years.
Well, I am not a mom yet, but I guess that, thanks to the desire of sharing her remarkable attempts and knowledge, Jennifer offers a big opportunity to every mom to actually appear cool to her teens, like it happened for her, and to learn better how to rear her children making them feel a real emotional nearness; I even think that everybody who works close to children and who has something to do with them should read the Connect with your Teens through Pop Culture and Technology blog, because the society is changing so fast and we really need to find meeting-points between the generations to avoid to lose the best of us.
Every day you can find a new interesting post there, with several links to great resources, pictures and examples which support the fantastic job made by Jennifer.
The design is very neat, the content is clear, well-organized, divided per month and labels and offers a great list of blogs about similar and related topics; in this blog, you can also find some buttons to recommend your favourite entries and, for what I saw, I can affirm that all the Jennifer's posts are quite famous, especially on Digg.com…this shows clearly that the content is really useful!

I am sure that you are too curious to discover new great ways to connect with your teens, so visit Connect with your Teens through Pop Culture and Technology and start to look the modern society as a positive opportunity for an important and valuable meeting between generations.
