Managing technology use with children can be daunting, leaving caregivers feeling overwhelmed with the constant evolution of new gadgets, apps, and ways in which our children can connect online. In this session, two moms who work in the cybersecurity field will walk through best practices, lessons learned, and resources available to keep children of all ages safe online. While there is no absolute solution to keeping children safe online, the goal of this session is to help caregivers feel empowered and armed with resources to make the best online decisions for their families.

Learning Objectives:

  • Explain how keeping up with evolving technology is challenging and how children today are exposed to and learn these new technologies faster than their predecessors.
  • Describe best practices, resources, and lessons learned for children of various ages using different online technology. Apply lessons learned from digitally parenting all ages of children.
  • Outline steps caregivers can take to make informed decisions on what online activity they do/do not want their children to participate in.
