A new day is dawning....

Our kids are spending an exorbitant amount of time online; between school work, research, social media, mobile apps and gaming it can seem like our children's lives revolve around likes, loves, shares, comments and screen time.

Ever noticed when you try to interrupt or decrease screen time it's like WWIII? Slammed doors, screaming, silent treatment, rolled eyes and a demand for their phone, laptop, or video game.  

We get it - it can leave you feeling frustrated, angry, incompetent and lost - wondering how did this happen? How did my amazing, loving child turn into someone I don't recognize. 

You are not alone and is the reason why we are hosting an educational and conversational platform to offer tools, insights, information and some techniques you can use to begin restoring peace in your home all while keeping your kids safe from online predators. 

The facts are in!  

According the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children there were over
65 Million online cyber tips of CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material)
.  Our children are at risk of being taken advantage of now more than ever before! 

We are committed to empower you to have courageous conversations to disrupt the cycle and keep your kids safe! 

We can impact this trend through powerful conversations!

That is a bold statement, after educating 14,000 youth we have a few things to share that can and will make a difference for you. Hearing from experts and courageous individuals willing to share their wisdom with you.
Our monthly conversations will cover topics like:

*Recruitment and grooming tactics used to lure kids in
*App's to watch out for
*Managing game time
*Safe ways to begin conversations
*Weening kids off games, videos, apps
*Facts about human trafficking 
*What our youth have to say about all of this

Our goal is to provide a safe place to express concerns and find solutions with other parents. This is done in a private zoom line with limited number of participants so you get your questions answered and feel empowered to tackle this new environment we find ourselves in today. 
Practice makes perfect. Our kids didn't come with instruction manuals and the brilliance of an online environment like this, is we can share tips, tools, ideas and some laughs along the way.

Our courses are a guided conversation with information along with opportunities to share in smaller groups insights and new things to try while managing screen time with your kids. Led by our President Jan Edwards, who has thousands of hours in front of teenagers having this exact conversation or one of our highly trained Mission Ambassadors, who have worked side by side with Jan to combat this crime. They will bring you real life scenarios that kids have shared and how to engage in those conversations powerfully and effectively, to keep your kids safe.
