What is your child being exposed to on their phone,and would they tell you if something went wrong?
Parenting educator and bestselling author Maggie Dent returns to A Life of Greatness with Sarah Grynberg to discuss her new book, Digital Freedom, and the online dangers parents can’t afford to overlook.
From pornography and cyberbullying to deepfakes, sextortion and AI companions, Maggie explains what parents need to understand, and how to protect children while keeping their trust.
You’ll learn:
- How algorithms can lead children towards harmful content.
- How to set phone boundaries without shutting down communication.
- When to talk about pornography and online safety.
- How to support children through exclusion, teenage emotions and self-harm.
- Your child doesn’t need you to know everything about technology. They need to know they can tell you anything.
This is an essential conversation for anyone trying to raise children in a world unlike the one we grew up in, and a powerful reminder that beneath all the technology, our greatest protection is still connection.
