How do you keep your kids safe online? In today's episode, hosts Chad Willardson and Scott Donnell go through practical ways parents can keep their kids safe online. They discuss the types of risks your child is exposed to, ways to identify potential online threats, and why you need to make it clear that they can talk to you about anything. Scott and Chad start the conversation by revealing many parents don't know where to start when it comes to keeping their kids safe online. According to Scott, all our kids are compromised as long as they own electronics. Chad shares a terrifying story of a malicious stranger targeting his teenage son. Scott and Chad agree that kids these days are way smarter than their parents when it comes to tech. Scott shares a shocking statistic - over 60% of 5-year-olds have made an in-app purchase using their parent's phone without them realizing it. Yes, kids are tech-savvy, but Scott believes they don't have enough experience to know when they are at risk. Chad and Scott break down a game in GravyStack that parents can use to teach their kids about online safety. For Chad, the best time to start teaching your kids about online safety is three years earlier than you think you should. Scott and Chad discuss building trust with your kids so they come to you when they feel compromised. Chad highlights the benefits of having rules around using technology in the house - and why he believes monitoring your kids is not an intrusion on their privacy.
