Parenting in the Digital Age
Social Media

Due to COVID-19, kids and adults are online more than ever, often unsupervised in the same space. Parents should stay involved in their digital world, know the apps they use, use parental controls where possible, and block and report people who make them feel uncomfortable. Kids should talk with a trusted adult so they understand online risks, only chat with people they know, ensure their online accounts are private, block people they don’t know or trust, and trust their instinct—if something makes them feel uncomfortable, tell a trusted adult about it. Click here to learn more.
