When you become a parent, you automatically start thinking about your kids’ safety. From putting them to sleep on their back to making sure their car seats are correctly installed (then teaching them about fire safety and stranger danger when they get older), protecting kids is a full-time job. And even though Prince Harry and Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle’s kids are young, the royal parents are working hard to make sure the online world is safe for Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 11 months, and the next generation of kids.
On May 16, the Duke of Sussex joined the 5Rights Foundation in a Global Child Online Safety Toolkit webinar.
“As parents, my wife and I are concerned about the next generation growing up in a world where they are treated as digital experiments for companies to make money and where things like hatred and harm are somehow normalized,” he said in the webinar, per People. “We want our children and all children to feel empowered to speak up.”
“It is not realistic to protect kids from everything.
We need new laws. We need public pressure. We need strong leadership.”📢Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, at the @5RightsFound‘s & @GPtoEndViolence‘s event to launch their Child Online Safety Toolkit. pic.twitter.com/OpfD7Ggob1
