Tech Support - Online Course

Empower your kids to make good decisions online.

Self-paced, on-demand course for parents of K-5th graders

The internet wasn't built for children.

As parents, we all worry about what our kids can stumble across online.

It's tempting to shut it down altogether, isn't it? But internet use is inevitable. And the time to help kids learn to navigate it well is now.

By teaching your child healthy ways to engage with technology, they will:

More easily recognize unsafe people and situations
Avoid taking risks online they wouldn't take offline
Interact online with empathy and kindness
Think more critically about online content they consume
Course Highlights

Learn how to prepare your kids for online experiences and challenges.

For kids, internet "safety" isn't just about staying away from bad people and avoiding grownup content. It's also about developing healthy online habits, being the same person online and off, and knowing how to navigate all manner of tricky situations.

Our online course helps you give your child strategies today that will serve them into adolescence and beyond.

Your Little One's Brain on the Internet

Kids' brains aren't fully developed until their mid-20s. Until then, their decision-making and impulse control are iffy, at best. Especially online.

Understand how your kids' cognitive development impacts their online behavior—and what to do about it.

Key Values
for Online Spaces

We all want to raise decent humans—people who preserve others' well-being without sacrificing their own. But the internet adds a layer of complexity to that goal.

Teach your kids how empathy, safety, and consent translate to online interactions.

Preparing Kids
for Online Experiences

Having access to the internet means kids are navigating tricky situations more often—and much sooner—than ever before.

Feel confident your kids know what to do when they encounter new people, grownup content, or bullying online.

Staying Connected
through Candid Conversations

When something "bad" happens online, kids tend to clam up because they're afraid of having their tech privileges revoked.

Learn how to respond, not react, so your kids will come straight to you with their questions and concerns.

Technology has made parenting harder.

Parenting has never been a piece of cake. But technology has introduced a whole slew of challenges our own parents could've never imagined.

At least that's the way it seems.

The truth is, the tough situations our kids face online aren't actually new. They're just happening in a different environment—and at a much younger age.

We want you to know you already have what it takes to help your littles navigate these challenges. After all, you teach them every day how to stay safe and healthy.

All you have to do is make those lessons applicable to your kids' online life. We'd be honored to show you how.

"Finally!! I was always nervous about my son being on screens and this course gave me peace of mind - and really clear ways to teach him how to behave online and stay safe. I'm already seeing a huge difference."
- Maggie
"LOVED this course. So enlightening.  Honestly, I was skeptical at first because I'm not techie at all, but Adam and Adriane are so relatable and their advice isn't technical at all. It just makes sense. I've already started making the 'small adjustments' to my everyday parenting and my kids are into it!"
- Marisa
"I've already started recommending this to other parents. I didn't grow up online, but I finally feel like I understand what it's like for my kids.  I can't tell you how good that feels."
- Chris

"Shouldn't I just keep my kids off the computer?"

... and other great questions

Shouldn't I just keep my kids off the computer?

We don't recommend it, and here's why: Even if your kids aren't spending time online at the moment, sooner than later they will. It's better to begin teaching them now how to take good care of themselves and others online.

My child is only 5 years old. Is this really necessary?

The sooner you begin having these conversations with your little one, the better. You'll strengthen your connection with them and ensure it's your voice they hear as they begin to have more and more online experiences.

My child is in middle school or high school. Is 'Tech Support' the course for me?

While there are certainly valuable insights in the course for parents of older kids, this course is focused on early childhood. Much of it isn't as applicable to teens and tweens.

Does this course address pornography?

We talk about pornography under the broad heading of "grownup content." That includes images or information that upsets your child, is developmentally inappropriate, is created for or directed at adults, and/or could lead them into dangerous situations or behavior.

I already have internet monitoring software. Why do I need this?

We think parental monitoring software is amazing—but it's not a replacement for parenting. This software is most effective when used to supplement connected parenting.  

Should my child watch the course with me?

We don't recommend it, only because we discuss some topics you may not be quite ready to introduce to your child. (See "Does your course address pornography?")

How long does the course take to complete?

The course is divided into 23 videos, and the average lesson is 5-10 minutes long.

What's your refund policy?

If you don't feel more confident helping your child stay safe online, let us know within 30 days of your purchase and we'll get you a refund.
