I know I’m a bit late (a month late) to all the posts about adoption week. I felt hesitant to say anything because adoption is such a complex, multi-layered topic. It needs many, many nuanced conversations to even begin to plumb its difficult and beautiful truths. That being

Admittedly, I watched Matt Walsh’s documentary and thought it was really good and brought up a lot of valid points. Does that make me transphobic? Does that make me an evil anti-gay person? I sure hope not. Like many others, I’m just trying to figure this all out.

First time on the new expressway (what a dream). I took it as an alternate route from Sihanoukville to Kampot as road 3 from Veal Renh is the worst it’s been. 242km in 2hr50min. Not bad considering it’s the same time using the original route!

Online grooming affects the most vulnerable (children). Don’t assume your child is “just fine” while using a device. Protect your children — be educated and informed, be aware of the signs, establish trust with your child. Read this guide 👇

From my experience as a professional in child protection and online safety research, striking a balance between family autonomy and children's safety is important, however, social media brings risks such as anxiety, depression, cyberbullying, addiction, sextortion, and grooming.

Euphoria may have good character development, but its hyper-sexualized and drug-fueled portrayal of teens is not an accurate representation. The graphic depiction of drug use and sex is triggering. Skip it and don’t let your teens watch this show.

Damn. It’s tough to listen to this 911 call. Lauren Boebert sounds more concerned about her planned “event” than about her clearly terrified teenage son, whose dad had been “throwing him around the house” in a violent rage.

Child grooming is wicked. A groomer employs manipulation tactics to gain trust and access to a minor for exploitation. Parents, be aware of the MO and teach your children to never share personal information or meet strangers online.

What is sextortion?
A predator reaches out to children over a game, app or social media. They manipulate the child into sending them explicit videos/pictures. The predator then blackmails the child, demanding $$ or threatens to send the photos to the victim’s family and friends.
