Guarding Kids Against High-Tech Trouble

GuardingKids.com
A Practical Guide to Keeping Kids out of High-Tech Trouble

From podcasts to porn, cyberbullying to cell phones, Dr. Russell Sabella helps readers understand the risks that emerge when high-tech tools, uninformed parents, and exuberant youth collide. Because kids are growing up with modern technologies, many are more expert than their parents. As a result, a parent's ability to make effective decisions for how technology is used may be compromised. GuardingKids.com empowers parents, educators, and other care takers to better understand the electronic terrain. Readers will be better able to help children safely and securely navigate a minefield of inappropriate and risky situations.

This page is designed to support Dr. Sabella's workshop for parents:

Guarding Kids: How Parents and Care Takers Can Help Kids Stay Out of High-Tech Trouble

    The goal of the seminar is to alert parents, educators and other caretakers about the dangers that technology poses to children and to give them tools they can readily use to keep kids safe and away from high tech trouble.

The workshop covers topics such as social networks (e.g., Myspace.com), sexual predators, threats to privacy such as online diaries/blogs, cyberbullying and hate, inappropriate web sites and other materials, inappropriate use of gadgets such as cell phones, mp3 players, game appliances, and electronic communication such as e-mail, instant messaging, chatrooms and bulletin boards.
