Learn how to protect kids in the digital age with expert knowledge and practical advice.

We love technology, and we know kids do, too. Guest presenter Rose Crawford from Protect Young Eyes will address:

  • YouTube (can it be controlled?)
  • Social media (our expertise)
  • Pornography (let’s talk about it!)
  • Gaming addiction (is this a real thing?)
  • Screen time (what’s the right amount?)
  • Tricky people (stranger danger in the digital age)
  • ...and so much more

The advice is practical – participants will walk out with a whole list of steps they can implement immediately to better equip their kids to make better online choices.

Desired outcomes for those who attend:

  1. Participants will better understand how the features in popular apps like YouTube, YouTube Kids, Snapchat, Instagram, and others can harm good kids who aren’t prepared to use them.
  2. Participants will better understand how to enable parental controls, if they exist, on popular apps and internet-ready devices, so that harmful features can be monitored and mitigated.
  3. Participants will be better equipped to have the right conversations about digital topics with the young people they care for. Saying the right things to the right kids at the right time is the most powerful tool caring adults have to mitigate digital risk.

The combination of these three outcomes will give parents and caring adults confidence as they raise children, and greater empathy for the difficulties of growing up in the digital age.
