Empowering parents to protect kids In the digital age
Putting parents back in control
of their children’s safety online
Technology has endless possibilities for children in and out of the education world, but it is also the most dangerous, misunderstood environment we have ever encountered.
You Need Allies. Us.
Technology has exposed our children to predators who can easily access and exploit them through social media, chat apps, and online games. Our children are not ready to deal with the sophisticated and sinister tactics of these predators, and because parents don’t deeply understand the risks and mechanics of these horrible criminals, they are powerless to protect their children for the world wide predator industry.
That’s where we come in. We equip parents, educators, and guardians with the fundamental knowledge, expert advice, and practical solutions needed to meaningfully protect their children. Through our subscription-based video streaming service, we offer empowerment for you to protect your children from online predators. Together, we can shed light on the tech world in a way that parents have never seen and protect this generation and all that follow.

Quick Tips.
Outside of our education program, there are some things you can do to help protect your children.
Communicate Openly: One of the key factors IN protecting children is good lines of communication. If the worst should happen and a child does get sextorted or assaulted from online predators, they need to be able to come to parents or guardians immediately for help. This is no different than the classic communication about high school parties and driving drunk. No parent is happy that a student made a bad decision and drank, but parents are happier to go drive the child home than if the child drives home drunk.
Check The Tech: Offer or REQUIRE alternative engagements outside of school. Children need extracurricular activities outside of school and off of tech. If your child complains about lacking friends outside of the tech world, help them find friends in the real world with sports, music, and other engaging recreation. They’ll never find friends IN THE REAL WORLD if they continue to live IN THE TECH WORLD.
Use Monitoring Software:There is no version of perfect monitoring software, but there are many that do help. Find one that works with your devices and use it. We do offer recommendations as well with our subscription plans.
Recognize Red Flags: A few hallmarks of sextortion ARE erratic behavior, always being out of money, and panicked behavior. In one case, DEPUTY Gomez recounts hearing about a child who had been sextorted for years and the parents only realized it after they heard DEPUTY GOMEZ PRESENT. Look for RAPIDLY SHIFTING behavior and sit down with your child.
Safe Gaming: Online games are naturally unsafe because they use the internet. However, limiting the worlds that children can play in and closely monitoring their friends lists does help to a degree. Classic platforms like Roblox are the riskiest platforms as they are target-rich environments for predators.
For Educators: Refrain from integrating gaming systems like Minecraft into your curriculum. Even though your assignments may not require online access or have restricted worlds in which students work, they still encourage the Minecraft game and platform which has been known to lead to predation and harm.
