With the average screen time for a child today at a whopping 7.5 hours per day parents are looking for a way to establish healthy usage of technology. There are many parental control apps out there claiming to handle specific online issues for children. But with Safe Lagoon there is now a single app for families addressing their most important needs.<\/p>\n\n\n

It\u2019s not just about web surfing anymore<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Parents are looking\u00a0for a one-stop solution which will help them manage and interpret the huge flow of data that kids encounter today across their devices.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

In today\u2019s digital age children are met with new threats and challenges everyday including: bullying, privacy, predators and explicit content and more. Left to their own devices, kids lack the knowledge and experience to properly maintain their online safety. Safe Lagoon is a simple tool that can help them manage the complex online world.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Saving Your\u00a0Time<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

As we address the challenge of developing responsible and safe usage of connected devices we are saving parents valuable time as well.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

When parents use Safe Lagoon they no longer need to spend time with hands-on page by page reviews of their kid\u2019s browser history and avoid\u00a0causing a scene when they grab their child\u2019s telephone and start scanning text messages manually. The Safe Lagoon app frees up parents by analyzing in the cloud all the channels that their kids use to communicate \u2013 and if there is a problem or a behavior pattern that could signify an issue \u2013 we send out a notification.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Parenting is hard enough without having to learn a new language \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Parents aren\u2019t always aware of the slang and abbreviations used online today (the good old days of plain old \u201clol\u201d are long, long gone) and a lot of time can be spent trying to decipher content and serious events can be missed. We take care of that. Safe Lagoon is always evolving and learning how kids speak and communicate today. We have an excellent success rate on understanding jargon, screening with comparisons against the millions of records we have in our database. It would take a huge amount of time for a parent to do that \u2013 and to be honest, it\u2019s really boring reading\u00a0kids texts all the time. Now parents are saving valuable time by letting let Safe Lagoon\u00a0handle it for them.<\/p>\n

Parents Protect Kids Online<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

A\u00a0Pew Research Center survey\u00a0<\/a>of parents finds that parents today have a variety of methods in guiding their kids in the direction of healthy digital habits.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Connected devices are so abundant in a child\u2019s life, that 65% of parents have taken to \u201cdigitally grounding\u201d their children when they misbehave.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

While more and more parents are incorporating parental software tools like Safe Lagoon, most are still taking a hands-on approach to managing their child\u2019s interactions online, from screen time to sites visited. According to the Pew study:<\/p>\n
