Your Kids Are Already Using AI: 3 Things You Should Be Teaching Them Right Now (with Stacy Kratochvil)

listen wherever you get your podcasts:

 

64% of teens are using AI. But only half of parents know about it. High school teacher, AI consultant, and mom of three Stacy Kratochvil joins Erika to pull back the curtain on what's actually happening with kids and AI right now, and why the answer isn't to ban it.

This conversation goes deep on digital literacy, confidence, and what it actually looks like to raise kids who use AI well. Whether you're a parent, a teacher, or both, this one is going to hit close to home.

What we cover:

  • Why banning AI backfires and what to do instead

  • How kids lose confidence in their own thinking when AI is always one click away

  • Teaching kids and adults to push back on AI output instead of just accepting it

  • The language we use around AI at home and why it matters more than we think

The kids are already using it. The question is whether we're having the right conversations with them about how.
