Book excerpt: Our children are being raised in a society that is radically different to that of just 20 years ago, as the internet has taken a central place in our lives, and with the virtually universal adoption of smart phones and computers by young people. This revolutionary and enormously disruptive technology has created a completely new set of challenges for parents, ones that are entirely different to those of a generation ago. Keeping Children Safe Online addresses these challenges head-on. The author, John Parsons, is arguably the country¿s leading authority on cyber safety for children. He works all over New Zealand with young people and their parents, showing them how they can stay safe in the online world. He also works as a consultant with the police, teachers and the health sector, and individually with children and their families to help them when things go wrong online. John brings an unparalleled wealth of direct experience to this issue. He has used this to develop a toolbox of highly practical, realistic and effective strategies that enable both children and their parents to deal with the challenges of digital technology, such as maintaining oversight of your child in the digital world, establishing boundaries for acceptable use, and preventing online sexual predation, cyber bullying, and cyber crime. These strategies do not depend on technological know-how ¿ rather, they simply require you to have a clear set of family values, and then to enable your child to broadcast these into the online world. Keeping Children Safe Online is a hugely significant and ultimately empowering book that is essential reading for any modern parent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you a busy parent, struggling to maintain a healthy work/life balance? Do you have children between the ages of three and twelve that you would do just about anything for in terms of keeping them safe, happy and healthy? Are you overwhelmed by the idea of trying to keep up with your tech-savvy children as far as their use of technology goes?If you answered 'yes' to all of these questions you'll benefit from reading this book - irrespective of whether you're concerned about how your children are using technology right now or in the future. This book explains what the online dangers are, how they may affect your children, and what you can do to keep your children safe.Parenting has always been a challenge, there's no doubt about that. But parenting in the digital age is a whole new ball game. We are the first generation raising 'digital natives' (children who don't know of a world without swipe screens and mobile devices), yet we grew up prior to the existence of this technology. No wonder it's tricky!For many parents, knowing that their children are probably smarter than they are (as far as the use of technology goes) is scary. You know about the dangers posed by technology: your kids will soon stumble upon inappropriate content online if they haven't already done so, and there are privacy risks to be aware of. The idea of your children being on social media is not one you're looking forward to. Tweens and teens commonly get themselves in all sorts of strife, posting content without thinking about the consequences. And then there's cyber bullying.It was only after experiencing and overcoming the harmful effects of technology addiction with one of her young children that author Ruth Dearing was inspired to candidly share her experiences to help other parents. Through her ongoing research she has gained extensive and valuable knowledge on the topic of children and technology. By reading this book you and your children can access and benefit from that knowledge.Despite its serious nature, this book is presented in a conversational and entertaining way that parents can relate to. The author shares her own unique and true stories that you won't find elsewhere, along with statistics that all parents with young children and/or tweens need to know about in order to succeed with parenting in the digital age. It's the ideal first step you can take in guiding your children to be safe, healthy and balanced online.Topics covered include improving communication with your children, how to avoid the top three mistakes parents make, potential scenarios your children may find themselves in, dealing with social media and more. Exercises at the end of each chapter will help you implement suggested tips and strategies.With the onset of the digital age it's become clear that you'll need to learn how to raise your children to be safe and resilient not only in their physical world but also in their online world. Internet safety for kids is increasingly more challenging with over a thousand new sites, games and apps appearing online daily. The only way to help your children safely navigate through the labyrinth of technology is to educate yourself and then apply your knowledge, working with your children towards a common goal. That's precisely what this book will help you to do.

Every parent and teacher hopes to help children develop into healthy, caring, and intelligent adults. Keeping Kids Safe, Healthy, and Smart is designed for all adults who interact with kids-whether they be parents, teachers, or other caregivers-and provides specific suggestions for keeping children safe from hidden and open dangers wherever they spend time. This book is organized around three different themes of major threats and hidden dangers to children in our country: threats in school spaces (e.g., in classrooms, on buses, on playgrounds, and on sports teams); threats in cyberspace (bullying or harassment and child predators or child pornography), threats in other spaces where children work and play (intrapersonal and interpersonal violence including a wide range of threats such as self-mutilation, accidents, abuse, environmental threats, drugs, and mental illness).

The chances are that you are like most parents and the answer is 'no' or, at best, 'I'm not sure'. These days, our kids are more internet-savvy than we are - they know how to unblock privacy settings or get around simple parental controls. Yet more and more frequently there are stories in the news about children being victims of internet crime; whether through Facebook party invites, cyber-bullying or, worse, child grooming. But what can we do about it? As parents, we have a duty to understand the different media our children use and put in place boundaries and guidelines to protect them. Is Your Child Safe Online? has the practical advice you need to minimise the risk and ensure your child is protected today...whilst still letting them do their homework.

It arms you with practical methods to make sure your child is safe. All your questions answered... * Do children get any guidelines at school on internet use? * How do children use social networks, chatrooms, instant messaging and blogs? * How do I control what my children look at online, or what information they give out? * What are the effects of time spent online on mental health and social life? How do I educate my children on how they can protect themselves against cyber-bullying and grooming? Give yourself peace of mind with Is Your Child Safe Online? - the book that every careful parent should own. The facts speak for themselves: In the last three years, the number of children belonging to a 'virtual world' has increased from 8 million to 20 million. One in five children aged five to seven are accessing the internet without parental supervision. Make sure YOUR child is safe online.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolutionary memoir about domestic abuse by the award-winning author of Her Body and Other Parties In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machado’s engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming. And it’s that struggle that gives the book its original structure: each chapter is driven by its own narrative trope—the haunted house, erotica, the bildungsroman—through which Machado holds the events up to the light and examines them from different angles. She looks back at her religious adolescence, unpacks the stereotype of lesbian relationships as safe and utopian, and widens the view with essayistic explorations of the history and reality of abuse in queer relationships. Machado’s dire narrative is leavened with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and openness to inquiry. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek, and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction. The result is a wrenching, riveting book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.
