"No parent can child-proof the world.  A parent's job is to world-proof the child."

Doug Flanders, MD

As parents or guardians, we all teach our children about "stranger danger" and warn them about white vans hanging around playgrounds where a stranger offers them candy or asks them if they want to see puppies, which is most likely where an adults' mind goes when we hear the word "predator".  But, kids today face a global playground with online gaming systems and the white van is a chat room where there is an adult posing as friend their own age who totally understands them.   

On the average there are over 500,000 predators online at any given time.  We at Light Duty Ministry stand with you in trying to protect your children by providing the below resources that will help you navigate this rapidly changing environment.  Explore the below websites to learn the tactics, terminology and safeguards that will assist you in defending your children's online experiences.  We believe children should be able to play and learn in a healthy and safe environment, free from the threat of abuse or exploitation.
