Thank you all for this broadcast!
I really needed to hear this. Thank you so much for putting things in perspective as a parent.
Availing our kids the opportunities to get into troubling situations, potentially dangerous situations, and situations in which their capacity for discernment is challenged is vital to strengthening their capacities TO discern and to hone the senses of situational awareness is critical. Not that guidance and protecting them is to be left to happenstance, but "helicoptering" them is as great a handicapping disservice as outright neglect. The key is fostering that bond so that one has some sense of just where that fulcrum lies according to that child’s inherent makeup, as it were. Giving them "devices" (tech gadgets) as babysitters is on a par with outright neglect.
Such a good episode, thank you❤ Shared🙏
This is such an incredible topic and great message ! Such a great a tool for a parent
Fantastic broadcast! I can't tell you how necessary this information is for young parents raising kids in this new tech savvy world. We've been full faced with terrible influences to our kids as one of the first families faced with these new intrusions to the safety of our children of 2012 and on. Terrible influences can enter your daughter or son's bedroom at night without you EVER knowing they're in your home via their handheld internet/chat capable device. Iphones offer security controls that Androids do not. Don't be deceived the threat is very real.
Thank you so much
Great :)

Hi I love this information and would keep in all in mind but I would like to know practical ways on how to keep my kids internet access safe could you do an episode on that
Hello, Magdalena. We strongly believe in the importance of parents providing oversight of their children’s access to the Internet due to the number of dangers lurking there. That’s why we have long recommended a family Internet filter be used. While no product is 100 percent effective, Net Nanny (bit.ly/457oBbY) has been independently verified as a quality resource, and we’re recommending it to our constituents as a viable option to consider as they make choices for their family’s protection online. Net Nanny is now the preferred family Internet safety provider for Focus on the Family.
For further help, we encourage you to read this article (bit.ly/42CiyKR) and browse our "Plugged In Parent’s Guide to Today’s Technology" (bit.ly/3MAtUJP) webpage. It provides suggestions for online protection as well as several helpful resources and articles about guarding your family.
That said, since broadcast topic suggestions are processed either by mail or email, would you be willing to submit your request to us by email at help@focusonthefamily.com? This way, we can forward it on to another department here for consideration.
We applaud your diligence in determining appropriate media fare for your family. Toward that end, may God grant you His favor and wisdom.
If you are following God and believe the Scripture Psalm 1 is key to the topic of online connectivity. What "stream" are you planted by - a worldy brackish stream or a pure stream of influence that waters your roots?
Psalm 1
1 Blessed is the one
who does not walk in step with the wicked
or stand in the way that sinners take
or sit in the company of mockers,
2 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,
and who meditates on his law day and night.
3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither -
whatever they do prospers.
