Social media, online video games, videos, chats and influencers: the digital world has now become an integral part of children’s lives. But what really happens on the other side of the screen? And how do young children experience this reality, which for many parents and grandparents remains difficult to understand? The new workshop “The online world through your children’s eyes”, organised by the Centre for Family and Social Care of the Diocese of Ostrava-Opava in the Czech Republic on Tuesday, 13 October, seeks to answer these questions. Aimed at parents and grandparents, the event – according to the organisers – will offer an opportunity to gain a closer understanding of the digital environment in which children and young people are growing up today: not only a place of risks and pitfalls, but also a space rich in opportunities. Alena Malúšková, a teacher, trainer and prevention specialist, will lead participants as they seek to understand what children experience online, what opportunities they find, and what dangers they may encounter. The workshop will also address how to support children as they navigate the challenges of the virtual world, when it is appropriate to give them their first smartphone, and how to gradually introduce them to using the internet. The organisers further explain that for parents today, educating their children also means learning to navigate this new environment with them. It is not simply a matter of monitoring screen time, but of being present, listening and providing guidance. Because, in the digital world too, what children need most is adults who are able to guide and protect them.
