Brand-new for 2025! Stay ahead of the curve and help your children navigate the online world safely and to their advantage.
About this Event

Our kids are facing a whole new level of complex as they grow up in a turbulent digital world.

Bullying, screen time, influencers, deep fakes, disinformation, lessening attention span, the rise of AI and VR … these are just some of the issues our children are facing online and, as parents, we can’t afford to ignore them.

But they are issues we have the power to tackle.

We need to remember, if we’re not talking to our children about the world, then someone else is.

The last thing we want to do is scare parents about the impact technology is having on their children or pile on any guilt. There’s plenty of that out there already.

But we don’t want to shy away from the problems either.

Our live event, Left to Their Own Devices? will equip you with practical skills and knowledge so you can stay ahead of the curve and help your children navigate the online world safely and to their advantage.


We’ll explore ...

  • What our children might be exposed to online, who they might be speaking to and how they behave
  • The teenage brain and why managing the online world is harder for them than for us 
  • Practical ways to keep your family safe online
  • Ways to keep up with a fast-changing industry
  • The impact social media is having on mental health
  • How we as parents can be role models


What to expect

We know that many parents are concerned about the digital world and the impact it is having on their children and that’s why we’ve created this event.

We want to address some of those concerns and give mums, dads and carers the tools they need to help their children navigate the online world.

At Care for the Family, we have a dedicated team of people working hard to make sure all our events are high quality, professional and the best they can be.

This event is well-researched, well-rehearsed and well-presented.

And it will be well worth your time.

We’ve packed it with practical tools and up-to-date research on the issues that a lot of families are facing. And our speakers certainly know their stuff – Katharine has also written a book about it!

We can’t promise that these 2 and a half hours will answer every question you have or address every concern, but we can promise to give you practical ideas to try and encouragement that you are not alone on your parenting journey.

We honestly believe that this one evening can make a difference to your family and we really hope you’ll be able to join us.
