Parenting in the Digital Age
It all begins with an idea.
We had the honor of having a room full of parents and our friend Tim Ballard, founder of O.U.R. Rescue as well as his colleague Allison Serrano, prosecutor from the DOJ for an evening to discuss Parenting in the Digital Age.
Pre-teens and teens are dealing with a multitude of new elements that current adults did not have growing up; nudes, sexting, dick pics, sextortion, rise in mental illness, fentanyl, social media, porn… the biggest change is, of course, the internet.
We spoke at length about tools we can employ as parents and the realities our children are facing or will face shortly in this climate. Tim and Ali shared stories from their experience with child predators to give real life insight into the hell that is child sex abuse. They gave tools on how we can prevent abuse from happening to our children and preventing our children from developing unhealthy sexual rhythms that could lead them down the path of desiring child sex abuse material.
Take a look inside the night… looking forward to more of these in the future geared specifically on age and gender.
