A child can't make tea if you don't teach them how to boil water.
A child can't walk to school alone unless we teach them to safely cross the road.
A child can't read unless we teach them the alphabet.
A child can't swim unless we teach them to float.
Digital skills are foundational too.
In this digital age, how do you protect kids on the Internet? Things have changed so much in the last few years. Dangers lie in social media and within apps. The use of these tools runs the risk of safety loss/cyberbullying, addiction, and a loss of personal connection and community.

- Document management
- Version control
- Malware
- Cyberbullying resistance
- Digital etiquette
- Gaming and avoiding addiction
This book identifies current problems and offers real-world solutions and guidance.
