World Tour: in Australia Learning How To Keep Kids Safe Online

Welcome back to Season 4, episode 17 of the FASD Family Life Podcast. This is the only show about FASD hosted by an FASD Specialist and parent with 30 years lived experience.  I am Robbie Seale, your host and mom to five incredible people; including three teens diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. As an FASD Specialist it is my passion to help families thrive.  To learn more about me and my work check out my website,  https://fasdfamilylife.ca/

I started this podcast to be the friend I wished I had when my kids were young and to bring hope to weary parents. I wanted to share what I have learned working in residential treatment and raising my own children impacted by trauma and prenatal alcohol exposure. I pour my heart and soul into the production of the FASD Family Life podcast. All that hard work is paying off! Since 2021 the podcast has grown to OVER 45,000 downloads worldwide.

I need your help to keep going and growing. Consider becoming a monthly sponsor. Your gift of $20 per month (or $5 per week)  would enable me to keep sharing HOPE and teach the SKILLS needed to reduce stress and improve lives for people with FASD and the families who love them.  Click here to Support the show

This week I am speaking with Holly-ann Martin, Founder and Managing Director of Safe4Kids. With over 30 years experience in teaching child abuse prevention education, Holly-ann has a wealth of knowledge and is able to provide valuable information and strategies that you can implement straight away to help protect the children in your lives from sexual abuse / exploitation.

We understand that child protection education is a sensitive topic and parents, carers, teachers and educators can find it quite daunting when faced with the challenge of having to teach it to their children.  But it is imperative that we are informed and equipped to protect the children in our care.
