Keeping up with what kids are doing online can feel impossible. Apps change overnight, games and social media connect strangers, in ways that blur the line between fun and risk.
And for even the most tuned-in parent, the digital world our kids move through every day is fast-moving, unfamiliar territory.
That’s why we’re sharing the full audio of a l presentation by Terri Markham, Executive Director of Uprising in Sheridan. Terri works hands-on in prevention and youth advocacy, and in this presentation she lays out what’s really happening here in Wyoming and beyond.
Fnd out:
- Why online interactions aren’t always as harmless as they seem.
- How sextortion, grooming, and image-sharing can pull kids in before they realize the risk.
- Which apps and games to watch out for right now
. - Straightforward ways families can keep communication open and kids safer online.
This isn’t about fear – it’s about awareness. Terri lays out the insight you need to be well informed, have the honest conversations about a digital world that can be something very different from what it appears.
