Avoiding Strangers & Dangerous Situations: Help Your Child Stay Safe Online
(Live Online Session #2) Learn the dangers of students talking with strangers online, how to recognize the red flags, and a practical approach to help your child stay safe and happy online.
In this online event you will connect with expert guests and other parents for a practical, judgment-free conversation as we address the questions parents have, but rarely get clear answers to:
- What are the real risks of my child talking with strangers online?
- What are the ways predators are getting kids to open up and share information?
- What kinds of messages might my child receive from strangers on their apps and video games?
- Can AI really collect information about my child? What are the dangers I need to know about?
- How do I explain to my child that not everyone online is their friend?
*Only for families in partner school districts or individual paid VIP members: simply attend the live event, join in the activities, and your family will be eligible to earn points and prizes to keep your family safe (while supplies last). See winners here.

You hear all of these things about what kids are doing online and it was great to understand the things that are hidden behind the scenes on these popular apps. We are definitely better off now. Thank you for the presentation.
