Description: MacKenzie Baldwin, a normal teenager in Plano, TX, fell prey to a charming man on the internet who wooed her into a dangerous relationship where he almost convinced her to leave everything behind and flee to Kosovo to marry him. Her parents caught wind of her plans and in 25 days were thankfully able to stop her. While the internet isn’t itself bad, there are definitely dangers we need to be aware of. In today’s culture, we’re all addicted to our phones, TV’s, iPads, and computers. Sadly, we’re raising a new generation of screen-addicts. Did you know research says the use of screens actually rewires our kid’s brains? Dr. Josh and Christi Straub are licensed counselors that are passionate about working with families to understand the over exposure to screens and how to create healthy boundaries in the home.
