How to keep your kids safe online
Your go-to guide for one of the greatest dangers facing children today.
A perfect book for the long summer months, when parents and kids will be navigating their newfound free time together.
According to a 2015 study, children spend an average of six and a half hours per day on screens, and the figure is rising. Ninety-three percent of teen Facebook users share their real name, sexting is now the 6th top-ranked issue in the list of health concerns for US children, and a 2016 report indicated that 33.8 percent of students between ages 12 to 17 have been victims of cyberbullying in their lifetime. Children face real dangers online, but how can parents protect their children without isolating them from the reality of our digitally connected world?
Parent Alert! includes cybersecurity advice from one of the world’s leading security specialists, Will Geddes, who coaches parents on the risks of cybercrime, sexting, cyberbullying, phishing, cyberstalking, grooming, nude selfies, and other internet dangers, and offers practical advice so that children can be engaged in modern media but still safe. Aimed at both children and parents, Parent Alert! speaks to digital natives and the less tech-savvy so that parents and children can negotiate their online presence without pitting one side against the other.
