Parents' Gatherings at papas.academy
More interesting than the screen
raising kids without fear in times of apps, social media and artificial intelligence
raising kids without fear in times of apps, social media and artificial intelligence
Neither screens nor AI are going to raise your children — and they aren't the enemy either. An exploratory session to become the most interesting thing in the house again: through play, without lectures. Available online permanently, with recurring and on-demand live sessions.
With Carlos Miranda Levy — creator of papas.academy.
Presence beats preaching: how to get your child to open up to you, how to water the passion that sprouted in them, and how to plant a tradition that won't expire — one that grows with them wherever they go.
We don't have a screen problem — we have a chance for presence. The virtual is real, a shared screen is worth double, and the most common situations at home, solved live.
AI isn't going to raise your children — but it can help you. What it is and what it isn't, how to use it together (a half-told story is worth more than a thousand filters), and a home with judgment instead of a home with bans.
We start by playing — play always comes first — and close with papas.academy live: the 100+ activities, the 100+ situations, the 400+ destinations, the 19 Campus courses and the dad jokes you take home free.
Here's everything we use and hand out — share it with whoever you like: parenting improves in a network.

At every gathering, parents raise their own particular questions and concerns. We keep logging and answering them on our Questions & Answers page, with the academic and pediatric sources behind each answer. Send in your own questions too.
Quality screen time, finding the right balance, age-appropriate access, and how to spot an addiction — answered with real evidence (AAP, AEP, Mayo Clinic, WHO, DSM-5). See the questions →
