Parent Cyber Safety with Melinda Tankard Reist and Daniel Principe
Event description
Navigating a se*ed-up world: How can we help our children resist harmful messages from media + pop culture and aspire to respectful relationships?
Glasshouse Christian College has invited Melinda Tankard Reist, author, speaker, media commentator and blogger and advocate for young people, to talk with our students during the day and give a special presentation for parents at night.
The average age of exposure to p*rnography is 11 and young people are acting out through sexting and putting their bodies on display. Children are being shaped by the dominant message that tells them they have to be ‘hot’ to be liked and accepted. Melinda will provide practical tips and resources to help parents address this toxic culture and raise happy, healthy and resilient young people who value their dignity and self-worth.
Melinda will be accompanied by Daniel Principe who will contribute to the parent session on his work especially with young men; helping them to be their best selves.
