Having The Talk About Internet Safety With Kids Little To Grown: Episode 247

Published: Feb. 11, 2020, 9 a.m.

When your kids are tiny, it might feel like you have lots of time before their access to the internet requires you to have \u201cthe tech talk\u201d \u2013 a conversation about online safety, citizenship, and digital well being. And if having that talk feels overwhelming to you, you\u2019re not alone! Only 4 in 10 parents feel confident enough to talk to their family about online safety.

But as moms of many kids in different age ranges, we know that just like with other big topics, it\u2019s not one conversation you\u2019ll have with your kids, it\u2019s many small ones over time that will add up to your kids feeling capable and confident using the internet as safely as possible (and feeling comfortable coming to you when they need support).

Join Meagan and Sarah for a little-to-grown rundown of how we talk about things like online online safety, social sharing and communicating responsibly, digital citizenship and more with our kids\u2013plus specific tips for how to make the conversation accessible and fun for you as a parent, not something to stress over.
