Is your child safe from the dangers of pornography?
School-issued Chromebooks are here to stay, and many parents are worried that schools aren’t keeping them safe for kids. And we’ve got lots of proof! A Common Sense Media survey revealed that of the teens who reported viewing pornography during the school day, 44% did so on school-issued devices. For more information about this crisis, check out this article to learn what you can do to keep your child safe. Click HERE.
