Teens and kids will learn the importance of not talking to and not building trust in any way with strangers they meet online. Experienced predators know exactly how to trick kids, ESPECIALLY the teens and kids who think they are too smart to be fooled.

Who this course is for
This course is primarily for kids and teens, but it is also for parents so they have things to talk about with their kids/teens! The idea is that this course teaches teens, who usually think they know everything, how they can be easily tricked and groomed online. This course helps parents to have the same knowledge, and gives them something to talk to their kids about.
