Sarah Bush Lincoln is hosting a workshop, “Digital Discernment: Creating a tech-ready home in the AI age,” to educate families on how they can create safer digital spaces for children.
From 6 to 7:30 pm on Tuesday, April 14, a 90-minute session will teach how to create a tech-ready home. The workshop is free for parents and caring adults and is presented by Chris McKenna. SBL thanks Linda K. Keeler for sponsoring the event.
It will be hosted at The Fields Church location in the Cross County Mall, at 700 Broadway Ave. East in Mattoon. Parking is located at the back of the mall.
During the 90-minute session, attendees will learn:
- Why your router might just be the most powerful parenting tool in your home.
- What is even more effective than parental controls?
- What the “Toxic Trio” is and how to protect your kids from it.
- Why 72 percent of teens are already using AI companions and what that means for your family.
