Recording of live webinar on 7.26.17.
Description: Children’s behavior online worries parents and caregivers. This webinar shares Helpline questions from a parent concerned about her pre-teen daughter’s safety online because strangers are contacting her, and from a parent who is concerned about his young son’s safety while gaming. Exploring our Helpline’s responses to these parents, we talk about specific online risks through a prevention-focused lens at different ages and stages of development. We also explore concepts and practices associated with privacy, social media and parental controls.
