DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR CHILD IS DOING ONLINE?
PARENT SAFETY ALERT: DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR CHILD IS DOING ONLINE?
Their safety doesn’t end when they walk through your front door.
The Henry County Police Department’s School Resource Officer Division wants to remind parents and guardians that some of the greatest threats facing our children may be just one click away.
Social media, gaming platforms, and messaging applications provide opportunities for entertainment and communication, but they can also expose children to cyberbullying, online predators, exploitation, and inappropriate content.
Being present in your child’s life also means being aware of their digital world.
We encourage every parent to take a few minutes to review the attached poster, familiarize themselves with the applications their children use, and most importantly, start a conversation.
Know the apps. Recognize the warning signs. Keep the lines of communication open.
Our goal is not to create fear, but to promote awareness, encourage meaningful conversations, and empower families to make informed decisions.
Remember: The most important parental control isn’t found in a phone’s settings. It’s the relationship we build with our children.
Together, we can help protect our children both inside and outside the classroom.
