Keeping kids safe when they’re online isn’t about technology so much as trust and communication.
It’s a well-worn cliché that kids are often—maybe usually—more tech savvy than their parents. Petaluma-based tech guru Leo Laporte says the first step in open communication with teens about their adventures online is often helping Mom and Dad catch up.
But, he adds, getting a grip on the online landscape today is usually a short-lived accomplishment.
Leo Laporte and his family will present “Wired Families, Safe Kids—One Family’s Journey,” at Sonoma Academy at 6:30 pm on Thursday, March 4th.
