Episode Synopsis

Fianna Fáil has published the combined findings of its Parenting in the Digital Age survey and its Youth Online Safety Workshop in conjunction with Foróige and Crosscare, revealing deep concern among parents about children’s exposure to online risks, alongside new evidence showing just how young children are when they first enter the digital world.

The survey of almost 1,000 participants, carried out by Fianna Fáil’s parliamentary party working group, shows that families are struggling to keep pace with fast-changing digital technologies and the online environments their children inhabit.

To discuss this in more detail, Alan Morrissey had a chat with Cathal Crowe, Meelick Fianna Fail TD and Chair of the Oireachtas Committee on Education and Youth on Tuesday's Morning Focus.
