Children & AI: What Parents Need To Know

As artificial intelligence becomes part of children’s digital lives, parents and carers are facing new questions about learning, trust and connection. How do we help children use these tools thoughtfully while continuing to build their own judgement and skills?

Join Psychologist & Digital Wellbeing Expert, Jocelyn Brewer, for a practical conversation about parenting in the age of AI. We’ll explore how to stay curious about the tools children encounter, talk about their limitations and guide age-appropriate choices. The focus is on open conversations and shared expectations that help families navigate change with greater confidence, without feeling they need to become technology experts.

Key takeaways

• Start age-appropriate conversations about what AI can and cannot do
• Encourage children to question and check AI-generated information
• Discuss privacy and what information should stay out of online tools
• Set family expectations that support learning, connection and independent thinking
