Kids are not necessarily safe just by staying at home anymore. Once they go online through their phones, they are already at risk in meeting and being preyed upon by online predators. Dr. Tim Jordan interviews expert Nate Lewis, CEO of The Innocent, about how to keep your daughter safe from these evildoers lurking around the internet. They discuss how parents must set the right boundaries for their children when accessing websites or social media platforms to decrease the likelihood of becoming victims of online predators. Nate also explains how elders should become role models for kids when it comes to using mobile phones and accessing the web.
