10. The Privacy Picture: How & Why to Protect Your Kids' Digital Privacy
Manage episode 421946344 series 3578121
Our guest this week is Leah Plunkett, author of the book SHARENTHOOD, and faculty at Harvard Law School and faculty associate at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society.
Leah and I recently reconnected when I had the opportunity to capture some new headshots for her website upgrade. You may have heard of her before ā sheās literally an armchair expert and Dr. Phil trusts her as an expert panelist. Sheās been featured in the New Yorker, the Economist, Good Morning America, PBS, and more.
Sheās a self described āLaw Nerdā who spends most of her days reading through privacy laws and educating parents about ways we can āadvocateā for our kids and guide them in ways to protect themselves in this ever evolving digital world.
Leah wrote Sharethood to shine light on the mistakes adults make with kidsā private information, the risks of that result and the legal system that enables the collection of your childās digital footprint from often before they are born!
In this episode, we discuss practical ways we as parents can be more mindful about what we say about our kids online, what apps we use, and how we can model safe sharing in the digital world for our children.
