Weā€™re preparing for the summer!!

Summer means more screen time, more apps, more gaming, and more online interaction.

But it also means more opportunities to protect, educate, and connect with our children.

šŸ“± This summer:āœ”ļø Review privacy settingsāœ”ļø Check location sharingāœ”ļø Set screen time limitsāœ”ļø Talk about online safetyāœ”ļø Encourage balance offline & online

The best online safety tool isnā€™t an appā€”Itā€™s a conversation.

This summer, donā€™t wait for something bad to happen.

Do you know who can contact your child online?

Many accounts are PUBLIC by default.

Take 5 minutes tonight to review:
šŸ”’ Privacy settings
šŸ‘„ Friend lists
šŸ’¬ Messaging permissions

Small steps = big protection

The most dangerous app isnā€™t always the most popularā€¦Itā€™s the one parents never check.

Set device limits. Create boundaries. Stay involved.

You donā€™t have to be an expertā€”just present.
