SUMMARY - Digital Literacy for Children and Families

A mother tries to explain to her eight-year-old why he cannot trust the "free Robux" video that a friendly-seeming YouTuber is promoting, but she does not fully understand how the scam works herself, and her attempts to warn him come across as out-of-touch prohibition rather than education. A school assigns digital citizenship curriculum developed three years ago, teaching students about platforms they no longer use while ignoring the apps that actually dominate their social lives, the lessons feeling irrelevant to students who navigate digital spaces the teachers have never entered.
