Parenting in the Digital Age
At least once a year, I speak to parents about parenting in the digital age. I cover a variety of topics including sexting, online predators, pornography, cyberbullying and more. It is a discussion about internet safety. This week I am presenting again at our Single Parent Family Vacation organized by our church. I have updated some statistics, consolidated some information, and added some new technologies (some release just this summer) that help parents monitor activity on mobile devices and social networking sites. The tools for parents continue to improve….which is all great news. Of course they are no substitute for parenting, but they do equip parents to teach and guide their kids online. So if you are a parent looking for my presentation or someone looking for material to use elsewhere….here you go:
Parenting in the Digital Age: Powerpoint | PDF
NOTE: The hyperlinks in the powerpoint files didn’t convert well into PDF. To visit the sites mentioned in the presentation, view the powerpoint file in presentation mode and then click on the links. Sorry….I researched the linking issue on Adobe’s website, but was unable to locate a fix for it.
