Breakfast Special: How Good Are You at Digital Parenting?

With smartphones now largely kept out of schools and new safeguards like app store age checks and device curfews coming into play, the boundaries around children’s screen use are shifting. But beyond these measures, much of the responsibility still sits with parents navigating a growing ecosystem of filters, settings and controls. Shem Yao, Head of TOUCH Cyber Wellness joins the Breakfast Show to unpack how parental controls actually work in practice and where their limits lie. More importantly, we explore what effective digital parenting looks like today, how parents can approach conversations with their children, and what really makes a difference beyond just switching settings on.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
