Threats, predators, and violent pornographic content lurk behind our children’s screens. How can we protect their eyes? As seen in Childhood 2.0, this week Rania Mankarious sits down with Chris McKenna, Founder and CEO of Protect Young Eyes, an organization on a mission to create safer digital spaces in partnership with parents and community members. In their powerful sit-down, Chris and Rania tackle online threats, pornography exposures, and predators. They also discuss the Facebook Whistleblower and the fight for legislative protections.
