Let's get technology right — together.

Techlaration helps parents and schools see where their community actually stands on phones, social media, AI, and more — so you can make better decisions together. Free to use, nothing to sell, responses are never sold or shared.

Technology should serve human development — not undermine it.

We want our kids to grow into independent adults who can use technology without being run by it. That doesn't happen by giving them access to everything all at once — or by banning it forever. It happens step by step: introducing things when kids are ready, supporting them while they learn, and handing over the reins as they grow.

But for many kids, peer pressure and platforms end up setting the timeline — not parents, and not kids' actual readiness. Techlaration helps families and schools see what's really happening in their community, so we can make thoughtful choices informed by each other.

This isn't a pledge to restrict anything. It's a shared statement of where we want to be. We're all free to make our own choices, but we share six commitments about how we do this together.

Six shared commitments
1
Protect and prepare. Childhood is worth protecting — and adulthood is worth preparing for. We'll hold off on what kids aren't ready for, and help them build the skills to handle it when they are.
2
Hand over the reins. Freedom and responsibility should increase together, step by step. We'll be as deliberate about loosening limits as we are about setting them.
3
One conversation, home and school. Kids live one life across both. Families and schools each make their own decisions — we'll work to understand each other's reasoning so those decisions fit together.
4
Respect different choices. Families will land in different places for good reasons. No family should feel pressured by other parents — in either direction.
5
Stay curious about the evidence. The research is still developing and thoughtful people disagree. We'll share what we learn, say what we don't know, and update as we go.
6
Act together. Some choices — group chats, phones at parties, which apps a grade moves to — affect other people's kids. Those are the ones worth coordinating across the grade.

Seeing ourselves clearly

Techlaration helps school communities see themselves clearly. An anonymous survey makes our private technology choices visible, so families can find common ground, coordinate where their choices affect each other, and give school leaders an honest picture of where the community stands.
