Well, welcome back to Family Talk. I'm Roger Marsh. You know, technology has surely changed our way of life over the last few years

from the first televisions that had no remotes to the smartphones of today which are a source

of communication and entertainment that you also use for work and shopping right in the

palm of your hand. Now naturally this revolution has had a huge impact on our

children with some definite dangers. Toddlers and young children alike today learn and play on devices connected to the

internet and that could put them at risk of being exposed to inappropriate content.

It can also make them vulnerable to predators.

As a parent, you can provide as much guidance as possible.

You can block websites.

You can limit screen time.

And yet, even with those precautions precautions there's still some risk.

As your children get older, their friends may have access to inappropriate content that

your child may view on those devices.

So how do parents and caretakers fight back in this

seemingly uphill battle? Well there is hope and there have been some

significant steps taken in the right direction. Now today's program here on Family Talk

was recorded about five years ago and while some of the content may have been

specific to that time much of what we're about to hear in today's

conversation is still relevant today.

Joining us once again is our guest Donna Rice Hughes, the president and CEO of Enough

is Enough, a nonprofit organization working to make the internet safer

for children and families.
