Internet Safety for Kids -- a Pathways to Parenting Program at the Fairfield Public Library
Whether you’re worried about social networks, texting, apps, online privacy or other growing areas of high-tech concern, it bears remembering: keeping kids safe in today’s online and always-connected world requires a multi-pronged approach. Detective Beth Irizarry from the Fairfield Police Department’s Youth Services Division will give the police perspective on the dangers and trouble that is affecting Fairfield youth, touching on online predators, cyber-bullying, sexting and over-exposure. This program will take place Thursday, October 17 at 7:00 pm in the Memorial Room at the Main Library, 1080 Old Post Road. Registration is required.
This program is presented through the Library’s Pathways to Parenting series. Another offering this fall will be “Leading Our Girls to a Healthy Mind and Body” with child psychologist Dr. Farnaz Vossoughian on November 7.
