Navigating screen time, online predators, and social media with your kids can feel overwhelming — especially when you want to lead your family with faith.^1 DigitalParenting.com offers a research-based, biblically grounded framework to help Christian parents tackle these challenges through seven practical steps: regulating screen time, avoiding inappropriate content, safeguarding mental health, defending against predators, building respect, maintaining privacy, and consuming media critically.^2
Founded by David Tucker — a technology author, software consultant, and former pastor based in Cleveland, Tennessee, who is also a father of three teenagers — DigitalParenting.com was born from a calling to make effective digital guidance accessible to every family.^3 The organization partners with churches worldwide through Digital Parenting Fundamentals, a 10-week small group course that equips entire congregations with tools and conversation starters. Hosting is free for churches; participants purchase materials through the DigitalParenting.com store.^4 Their companion book, The Digital Parenting Guidebook, is highly rated and available in paperback, Kindle, audiobook, and hardcover formats.^5 A companion online community provides additional resources and discussion for families implementing the 7 Essential Steps.^12
