Monitoring the online activity of your children can be overwhelming. The following are a few tips/resources available for you to research and decide what may fit your situation and be helpful for your family. HASD does not endorse or promote any of the following.
Screenagers - Are you watching kids scroll through life, with their rapid-fire thumbs and a six-second attention span? Physician and filmmaker Delaney Ruston saw that with her own kids and learned that the average kid spends 6.5 hours a day looking at screens. She wondered about the impact of all this time and about the friction occurring in homes and schools around negotiating screen time—friction she knew all too well.
Bark - monitors texts, email, YouTube, and 30 plus apps and social media platforms for signs of issues like cyberbullying, sexual content, online predators, depression, suicidal ideation, threats of violence, and more. With content monitoring, you can get email and text alerts when Bark detects potential issues so you can talk to your child.
