Jessica Joelle Alexander is the creator of Raising Digital Citizens, which is designed to "help families foster more meaningful relationships based on what researchers clearly confirm is the very best protection for children in the digital world: conversations."

Talking together about values in the online world and making a bond based on trust, not fear, is one of the best long term investments in a child’s safety a family can make. Most parents have no idea how to even begin to cover everything when discussing digital citizenship. This is exactly why Raising Digital Citizens’ conversation cards were created: to help you cover all the important topics in a fun, hands-on way so you can ensure your child knows what to do in any situation even when you aren’t there to protect them.

The cards are followed up by a personalizable agreement, ongoing support, guidance and lots of cutting edge research and tools to help you evolve together with understanding and respect, not distance and hostility.
