It’s safe to say that the advent of the digital age—and specifically the Internet, smartphones and social media—have brought unique and daunting challenges to the current generation of parents. As a “bonus” challenge, the technology that both helps us parent and also poses danger to our kids’ safety is ever-changing. As soon as you have one dangerous app deleted from a mobile device or have installed safety software on a computer, another scary app or Internet safety issue appears. The best way to face these parenting obstacles is to educate yourself about them and communicate openly with your child.
