A Very Quick Guide to Your Child’s Online Safety:
Children face a wide range of dangers and threats that our parents could not even begin to imagine.
Parenting Threats: 1990s vs. 2020s
Child predators
1990s: Concern about strangers at the park or around the neighborhood.
2020s: Concern about countless strangers online, reaching kids from across the world through any screen, with countless digital platforms giving access.
Bullying
1990s: Bullying was contained to the schoolyard, and usually did not follow us home.
2020s: Cyberbullying knows no boundaries—mean comments, photo manipulation, and hate can follow kids 24/7, wherever they are.
Explicit content
1990s: Parents worried about kids finding adult magazines.
2020s: Parents worry about explicit content at their child’s fingertips, with the internet making it accessible anywhere, anytime – and often for free.
Excessive screen time
1990s: Limiting TV time to protect kids from too much screen time.
2020s: Managing screen time is only part of the problem; the challenge now includes protecting kids from pressures of likes, follows, and social media validation. Screens range from television to cell phones and are accessible anywhere.
