I created SafeTechParenting out of one simple belief:

Every child deserves to grow up safe, curious, and free from dangers they can’t yet see.

I didn’t arrive at this mission through theory or research papers. I arrived here because I’ve seen what happens when profit is put in front of protection.

Someone I love was hurt. Not by bad luck or by an accident, but because nobody in power stepped in.

Modern digital systems make it far too easy for sh*t to happen.

The damage itself was already unbearable, but what stung even more was realizing that nobody, and I mean, not a single party in this cancerous equation paid a price for it.

The corporations kept collecting data as if nothing happened. The platforms kept profiting. And the people responsible disappeared back into the cyberspace.

I’ve always been fascinated by technology, and the good we can do with it. But that moment changed the way I looked at technology.

It forced me to see that parents still treat the internet as if it’s the one we grew up with. Messy, but mostly safe.

The truth is, today’s version is built to exploit, addict, and expose kids in ways we never had to deal with.

These risks are all invisible until they are too close from home, and it’s too late.

I took a step back from my career and put everything else on hold, and decided to dedicate myself to helping parents (if you’re reading this, you are likely one) protect kids in the digital world.

I know most parents don’t have the time to decode online privacy policies, study predator behaviors, social media manipulation tactics, or identity theft.

Ever since the accident that happened to the people I love, I’ve been exploring the latest corporate behaviors, manipulation tactics online, digital policies, and safety tools – and I’ve come to the conclusion that the Internet is a fucked up place for a child to grow up on.

Parenting in the digital age is overwhelming enough. Between homework apps, social platforms, gaming accounts, and endless churn of new gadgets, it’s impossible to feel fully in control.

You don’t need to be perfect. But what you absolutely need is a system that works in the background and gives you peace of mind. All while letting your kids explore, learn, and grow.

My site is not about fear-mongering or wrapping your child in bubble wrap.

My premise is this – the internet exists, so do the dangers within it. We can’t lock kids out of it until they’re 21 and expect them to keep up. Instead, we teach them to live with it safely.

I sound like a broken record at this point, but most of the protection you need doesn’t come from 500 different apps or complicated routines. It comes from just a few tools and rules with your child – password managers that your family will actually use, parental controls that let you keep control over your child’s devices, media consumption, and online interactions, and identity protection that stops bad actors before they ever get a trail.

I once read a parent’s comment on an old reddit post that haunts me to this day: “My child turned 2, and I posted a picture on Facebook. Someone used it to create deepfakes that looked like CP. That left a scar in me that will never heal.”

I felt every word of that.

This project is my way of turning something painful into something helpful and productive. And protective.

If you take anything away from me, let it be this: you have more power than you think.

Of course, if technology and “advancements” hadn’t raced ahead without any guardrails, and focused the same on safety as it did on profit, we wouldn’t be here. But since it didn’t, parents today have to play a role no generation before us ever had to. And what matters is what you do next.

With the right steps, you can use it to keep your child safe and keep their youth innocent.
