As a side effect of the pandemic, the past year has seen an exponential jump in the use of technology to reach out to people, access information, work, play and even shop with the ease of our mobile devices. With all of these advances, however, comes increased access to harmful things, which affect not only ourselves, but our children, as well. This month, we talk to professionals who are dealing with these same struggles and have advice on how to utilize technology while keeping kids away from things like pornography, bullying and even non-Christian ideals about family life. Check out this month’s podcasts for some tips on how to keep your kids safe while using technology.
