Parent to Parent
Kelsey Grammer is best known for his portrayal as Dr. Frasier Crane on Cheers and Frasier. Now he is doing for i-SAFE America what
he does best, being himself. As a father concerned about his own children going on the Internet, Mr. Grammer appears in the latest i-SAFE Public
Service Announcement (PSA) where he speaks directly to parents about the difficulty most have talking to their kids about the dangers lurking on
the Internet. To view the PSA, click on the photo to the left.
i-Parent Campaign
i-SAFE recognizes that a digital divide exists between parents and their children when it comes to the use of technology. In most cases, the
kids know more about the Internet and new technology than their parents. That is why i-SAFE launched the i-PARENT Campaign - a nationwide
movement of students, parents, educators and public officials - to inform parents about the dangers their kids face online and offer tips to
help protect them.
The i-PARENT Campaign trains students and parent advocates to conduct Parent Nights and provides them with resources through an i-PARENT
Toolkit CD. The i-PARENT Toolkit CD includes a "Start Here" training video and topical videos on the following Internet safety issues: Cyber
Predators, Cyber Bullying, Cyber Security and Identity Theft. The CD also includes all of the forms and documents you need to perform a
successful parent event. To order a copy of this CD, log in to the i-SAFE website and submit an Implementation Plan
for an i-Parent Program Event.
Interested parents can become a part of this exciting movement by creating or joining an i-PARENT Board in their local school district. To
find out how to establish an i-PARENT Board, order a copy of the i-PARENT CD and review the toolkit which provides an outline and helpful
resources to get you started. In addition, concerned parents can become certified to conduct Parent Nights to other groups by attending a
training in their community or watching a 45-minute online video. To find out if a training is being conducted in your area, go to the
i-SAFE Calendar of Events.
One last thing parents can do is complete the i-SAFE Parent Survey. If you have any
questions or need help, email parents@isafe.org.
