Check out this Internet Safety Tip Series brought to you by NOWTX. NOWTX created this powerful initiative that is dedicated to keep our kids safe online. Tip#1 - Set Up Parental Controls InternetMatters.org provides full tutorials with screenshots to help you set up a safer internet for your loved one with special needs. The key players are Google, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, but they have an extensive list of tutorials. YouTube has a separate app with parental controls built-in to make the process easier. Make sure that GPS location services are switched off for phones, tablets, laptops, PC’s, and all social media channels. If you usually leave locations services on because you are concerned about your child, and the places they spend their offline time, the Kapersky safety app will track your child’s whereabouts without sharing it to other apps. There are also programs that will allow you to restrict usage to certain sites. For phones, there are a variety of apps but your phone provider could already have a solution. AT&T, for example, offers the Secure Family app. Verizon, T-Mobile (Family Allowances, Web Guard), and other cell phone carriers also have services available. *Information brought to you by: Stephen’s Place #StephensPlace #notonourwatch #nowtx #notonourwatchtx #onlinesaftey #raiseawareness #thepowerofnow #onlinepredators #protectourchildren #socialmediasafety #houstontx #houstonevents #onlinetrafficing #childsafety #twib #texaswomeninbusiness #protectouryouth #stoponlinepredators #digitalsafetynow #empowerourmoms #knowledgeispower #smartphonesafety #screentime #parentingtips #dailyparenting #parenthood #tech #parentsofinstagram #momofteens #parentingteens #childdevelopment
