This week Gar is joined by Leonie Smith aka ‘The Cyber Safety Lady’ and host of the Digital Families podcast. Leonie has had an incredibly diverse career with a pedigree in graphic design, performing arts and was the CEO of social media training and strategy company Digital Breezes. Leonie was an early adopter of the internet and the common thread in her work is meaningful communication and effecting change.

Leonie and Gar discuss the important ways parents and carers can better navigate the internet, social media and gaming but more importantly how they can help their children. Leonie also lets us know about the three things she would have us do to be safer online, where the responsibility lies for keeping children safe online, the roles of campaigns and regulations for societal level changes, how to go about keeping kids safe while gaming and how to help our kids if something awful like cyber bullying or grooming should occur.
