Has your child taken up farming or mentioned joining the Mafia?

Have you ever driven a car full of tweens and not a single word was spoken?

Does your son suddenly spend inordinate amounts of time doing “homework” on the computer?

Have your co-workers mentioned “friending” their children and you have no clue what they mean?

Do you think Chat Roulette involves a trip to Vegas?

Got your attention? Great! If you’ve answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, you may be interested in learning more about the popular social media sites that kids are using these days; how to keep them safe while they are on-line; and how to stay on top of reputation management as employers and colleges search for questionable content on their potential hires and recruits.

C3 presents the seminar “Keeping Kids Safe on the Social Media Highway: Online Tips for Parents” for school and community groups.   The program goes well beyond Internet Safety and Online Stranger Danger and tackles the real world issues of  social media site usage by teens and the twin issues of content creation balanced with reputation management.  This 90 minute seminar covers the following topics:
