The organizers of International Children’s Day, celebrated on September 20 in Germany and Austria, are urging people help children navigate the digital world by providing them with information, guidance, and reliable technology to protect our children. This year’s official motto is “Strong Children, Strong Future!”. But what does this mean for parents? How can they help their children navigate a digital world when the parents themselves aren’t entirely tech savvy? Overcoming this challenge is easier when children, parents, educators, and politicians work together. It becomes even easier yet when experts weigh in with their knowledge.
There are vast differences in the expectations of children, parents, and teachers when it comes to the digital world. On the one hand, children dislike restrictions and bans and want to be free to use their phones, tablets, and computers as they please. Yet, on the other hand, parents want to limit their children’s screen time. Complicating the matter is the expectation of teachers that their students use the internet for learning purposes only. This year’s International Children’s Day is tackling this divide by raising an awareness of it in public debate and urging people to help children when navigating the digital world, true to the motto: “Strong Children, Strong Future!”.
