Children Online: Realities, Issues and Solutions.

Innovative and comprehensive workshops and training programs that look into the lives of children and teens online.

Our approach, unique in the field of online education, research and counseling, is to focus on the impact of the internet on the social, emotional and language development of young people.

Doug Fodeman and Marje Monroe, both experts in technology, counseling and education, work together to provide invaluable research and tools for parents and schools with practical real-life solutions to the issues faced by young people online.

Girls with laptops "The combination of technical and teaching expertise that Doug and Marje provide makes for a powerful presentation and educational experience for people of all ages. The knowledge gained by our school community was invaluable, whether you are a parent, student, teacher or administrator. I witnessed first hand the immediate and positive impact that this presentation had on our entire school community, so much so that it became the hot topic in the faculty room, classroom and dinner tables long after Doug and Marje left. The gratitude from parents, the ongoing classroom discussions with students, and the knowledge gained by our faculty has made us better guardians, communicators and teachers. Doug and Marje provide valuable lessons we can all learn from to keep children physically and emotionally safe on the Internet."

"I have received such GREAT feedback from your meetings with students and parents. One of my 6th grade students said to me, 'No offense Ms. Chafiian, but a lot of times these conversations about internet safety are really boring. Monday's meeting was not boring. They were good.' Remember the eighth graders? How they knew it all? An eighth parent shared with me that her daughter called her from school after your meeting and told her mom that she needs to remove a bunch of software from her computer. The mother was thrilled. The general feeling is that your message was well-received and definitely heard. The kids especially liked the way you didn't tell them not to have an online life. They seem to be thinking about things. So thank you again, very much, for helping us continue having these important conversations."
