No AI was used in the construction of the content. The content was curated from a parent’s point of view. We just kept saying to ourselves, what matters to me, as a parent? What information would be useful to me?

Yes, we followed in the footsteps of some well-respected sites and added some insight that we ourselves had no idea had a bearing on digital safety. An unknown fact we did find, was from UNICEF – on the core pillars to fight violence online. That was that 70% of children reported that they did not communicate with their parents about what was happening online. UNICEF has identified – Communication, as a major pillar to fight against online predators.

In adventure one and as a theme throughout the adventures we drive the concept of a  ‘circle of trust’. At a young age, we want to encourage communication. Giving children the confidence that nothing is too embarrassing.  And driving the message that they are loved; they are special, and they have rights and people who are there for them.

These guides were designed to help you be a more confident parent and hopefully face less battles as they get older.
