My name is Jay... I am here because...
When I ask them, I get two reasons they are so involved with the digital world:
To Escape
To be famous and make $
DOSE OF REALITY
There’s a line; cross it and parents may actually unintentionally be doing significantly more harm than good.
We need to be out there, visible, helping and protecting...

Keeping Your Kids Safe from Deep Web Games & the Dark WebThere are billions of websites on the internet that are safe and freely accessible, but it’s possible for your kids to be curious enough to search the deep or dark web. Deep web games or deep internet music might draw younger children, while drugs, weapons, and dark web images might draw the interest of older children.
It’s hard to be sure what they’re accessing, but the first thing you should do to protect your children is to check their devices. Search for:
Mysterious things are intrinsically alluring. Also, as more people access the dark web, the more of a talking point it becomes. As it becomes a popular topic, the interest rises, especially for children.
To further protect your children, you can install monitoring software and content filtering. These tools allow you to control what they have access to online. You’re able to block sites, filter content using keywords, and monitor what they’re searching for. This ensures they don’t stumble on things that may be harmful or dangerous. As the internet becomes more intertwined with our lives, it can also become more dangerous. Protections like GoGuardian monitoring and web filtering software are the solution. Keep your children safe with GoGuardian.
It’s hard to be sure what they’re accessing, but the first thing you should do to protect your children is to check their devices. Search for:
- Tor.com (The Onion Router)
- Subgraph OS
- ISP (Invisible Internet Project)
- Tails
- Opera
- Whonix
- Waterfox

GREAT Article to hit Twitter/Web! Time important to you? Please click HERE And here is just a quick section...
- Time for my students. In the classroom we have so much to do, so little time. Teachers often focus on cover all the curriculum that they forget their true purpose: educating children. Instead of rushing to judge my students and their actions, I need to give them time. Time to process their learning, time to understand WHY they might be acting out, time to listen to THEIR concerns, time to HEAR their desires. All Teachers need to slow down and remember they are CHILDREN that need our time. Forgetting test scores and political mandates, teachers need to go with their guts and give students TIME.
