Today I'm joined by Lynn Findlay. We go into why foster carers can be presented with some much more complicated issues around online safeguarding compared to families where children are either natural or families who have adoptees. We discuss parenting styles in terms of digital devices and our approach to them and we have quite a bit of discussion about the impact of some of the behaviours of the families with children who are fostered. We talk candidly about working from the ground up in terms of approaches to online safety and why we are both so passionate about what we do.
