Internet safety questions from Enough is Enough

Internet safety was an issue most caretakers and educators find challenging. I have included a handout that is basically a conversation starter. Enough is Enough website has an abundant amount of resources for cyberbullying, internet safety, pornography, predators and trafficking, digital addictions, parent guides and more.

This character-based internet safety audio is from a few years back and technology changes quickly but the content is useful for families who feel challenged keeping their families safe online.

It’s funny, within a few years… our kids have moved on to Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter and I’m talking here about Facebook.

The recommendations are still helpful but now Circle by DISNEY is my helpful router based internet safety plan for now.

It connects to my cell app and gives me alerts and updates even if I am away from home.

The principles of character-based internet safety are timeless and remain the same.

This is a low-tech talk and includes Open DNS (free), Covenant Eyes and discusses how to report online predators usingThe National Center for National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

This faith based talk will offer encouragement to parents.The goal is to help as many families as possible from all backgrounds.
