These days, many of us have given up our landline phones (except Jenny, obviously) and for our kids, it’s a mobile world. And not just Zach Morris-style mobile, either, but our kids essentially have the world wide web at their finger tips. I was just thinking the other day – I bet Sam doesn’t know how to use a mouse. Everything he comes in contact with has a touch screen. It’s crazy. Of course, it also means they’re exposed to some crazy stuff, and keeping them safe using mobile technology is one more thing we parents have to be diligent about.
It’s new territory, really, and we’re going to have to figure it out together. Fortunately, AT&T is here to help!
AT&T has made a commitment to be a leader in providing education, resources and tools to help families better manage mobile safety, and they are offering the opportunity to one of our readers to attend a virtual Mobile Safety School session – along with a $50 VISA gift card.
The virtual Mobile Safety School schedule is as follows:
Oct. 23 at 1p ET – mobile safety for kids 8-11
Oct. 24 at 1p ET – mobile safety for kids 12-14
Oct. 25 at 1p ET – mobile safety for kids 15-17
To enter this giveaway, leave a comment on this post and include which session you would like to attend, should you be the lucky winner. A winner will be chosen at random on Saturday, Oct. 20.

My daughter is only 4 months old, so what scared me most is what advances will be made in the coming years! I love on our church youth group kids, and would love to attend the Oct 25 session to know how to best help them.
Really, boys had to talk to whoever answered the phone at my house. If Mom or my brother didn’t approve, I didn’t get the phone handed to me. (Dad never answers the phone 🙂 )
