What parents should know
Do you know how to talk to your kids about their behaviour on Facebook? Do you know what “creeping” is or how to help kids protect their online reputations? Kristen Yates will give you some great insights and tips in this 54 minute online training session for parents (recorded in Feb. 2011). The webinar is designed for parents and teens in grades 9 to 12.
