Keep Kids Safe.
Let Parents Parent.
Big Tech built the front door to our children's bedrooms — and locked parents out.
It's time to put parents back in charge.
Parents are the first line of defense. Give them the tools to protect their kids.
7+ Hours
the average time teens spend online every day — most of it out of parents' sight.
The Crisis
Our kids are growing up in a world we never agreed to.
Predators slide into DMs. Algorithms feed our children content they'd never be allowed to see in our living rooms. Anxiety, depression, and suicide rates among teens have surged in lockstep with the smartphone era.
Meanwhile, the platforms have built the most addictive products in human history — and buried the parental tools so deep most parents never find them. Default settings are designed for engagement, not safety.
Parents shouldn't need a computer science degree to keep their kids safe.
The Evidence
The harm is measurable.
AI is making this worse.
The solutions are clear.
These aren't talking points. They are the reality of millions of American families, and the data is not ambiguous.
95%
Of teens ages 13–17 use social media — and nearly half say they're online "almost constantly."

Why It Matters
Parents know their kids best — period.
For generations, parents decided when their kids could drive, who they could spend time with and which adults had access to them. Big Tech quietly took that authority away and replaced it with one-size-fits-all algorithms.
We're not anti-technology. We're pro-parent. We believe families should have clear, simple, working tools to set the boundaries that fit their child, their values and their stage of life.
Empowering parents doesn't shrink kids' world — it makes the world they grow up in safer, healthier and more human.
