PARENT WORKSHOPS
“Attending the Restore More parent session on Social Media was highly informative for me and my son. I knew that I would be getting him a Smart Phone soon so I wanted to be more informed about the different apps that today’s teens are using. To my surprise there were far more than I had imagined. A key takeaway for me were the SPAM accounts that children are creating. It’s worth the time for any parent who has children that have access to the internet in any form. You never know what you don’t know. “
- L. Blackburn, Parent
