If you are looking for guidance on how to keep children safe online

Founder life and leadership1 min readSam Page

If you are looking for guidance on how to keep children safe online, I'd recommend taking a look at InternetMatters.org.

Last night, Gemma and I watched "Swiped: The School That Banned Smartphones" on Channel 4. Along with re-igniting our long-running discussion on how we use our smart devices, and how we are going to navigate our Children using them, it made me realise it's annoyingly complicated to work out how to restrict device usage.

I went on a bit of a hunt and stumbled across InternetMatters.org - the site has some great high level information as well as specific step-by-step guides on how to lock down a range of devices (including Alexa, Apple and Android) using parental controls, with screenshots of each step... well worth checking out: https://lnkd.in/exrkSYBE

# If you are looking for guidance on how to keep children safe online

If you are looking for guidance on how to keep children safe online, I'd  recommend taking a look at InternetMatters.org.

Last night, Gemma and I watched "Swiped: The School That Banned Smartphones" on Channel 4. Along with re-igniting our long-running discussion on how we use our smart devices, and how we are going to navigate our Children using them, it made me realise it's annoyingly complicated to work out how to restrict device usage.
