-Do we, as parents, know about the potential dangers of apps like Roblox, Minecraft, Snapchat, TikTok, and Instagram?
-Is it true that platforms like Roblox are enabling sexual predators to target children as young as five years old?
-How can these tech giants disregard the importance of parental controls and safety features despite the thousands of horrific stories that have emerged?!
In this episode, we interview Titania Jordan, Bark Technologies' Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Parent Officer. She is an author and thought leader on digital parenting and has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, the Huffington Post, CBS This Morning, Good Morning America, and many others.
Titania discusses the dangers associated with apps like Snapchat, Instagram, Roblox, and Minecraft and offers guidance on how parents can stay vigilant and protect their children. It is no longer a question of IF our kids will encounter sexually explicit content but WHEN. And when that moment comes, will they be prepared?
We also talk about how tech companies are focusing on trivial issues while delaying necessary actions to implement safety protocols, leaving young users vulnerable and unprotected. Charity raises concerns about the shocking statistics: 63% of tweens and 77% of teens have encountered content with nudity.
Fortunately, Titania provides practical tools and insights that can help us become educated and engaged parents, allowing us to navigate this tech-saturated environment while keeping our kids safe.
