The internet is a place our young people are spending more and more time. Sadly, much of what is available to our kids is unknown to parents and is constantly changing. How can we guide our children through something this complex? How can we set guidelines and monitor activity online? What about smart phones? We discussed these issues and more in our first Caldwell Conversation of the year.
