I am signing the BEND PLEDGE because I support and/or plan to do the following:

​

1. I will delay smartphones until high school or later.

2. I will delay social media until high school or later.

3. Implement healthy tech practices at home, including but not limited to talking to kids early and often about the harms of addictive tech; adult modeling of healthy tech use at home; and screen time limits.

4. I will advocate for healthy tech practices at schools, including but not limited to policies that limit iPad use to only educationally valuable applications and removal of smartphones and social media from classrooms.
