This book is about much more than naked photos of your children showing up online. Will your kids' social media accounts keep them out of that prestigious college? Will those naked photos on their cell phone that they didn't request land them in jail or get them charged with a felony?
Are your tweens and teens buying fake IDs on the dark web to get into dance clubs and buy alcohol? Will your child be charged with manslaughter for bullying? If the person they bullied commits suicide, the answer is YES! Are your kids buying drugs like Molly or tainted marijuana for parties on the Dark Web? Are things YOU post on social media about your children putting them in danger or affecting their future?
Are Your Kids Naked Online breaks down the facts from fiction and is supported by academic research focused on technology, not only showing the real issues in an objective balanced way without down playing the real dangers and consequences, but also without fear mongering.
The Goods end most of the chapters with a "What You Can Do" section that has tips and guidance for parents. Many of the chapters also contain a real life story of how the technology today is really impacting children and their families, and how it doesn't matter if you are rich or poor, whether you live in a big city or a small town, what race or religion you are, the consequences that technology can have are indiscriminate.
Chris Good's and Lisa Good's expertise as 20 year veterans in the Cyber Security and Information Technology Industry as well as parents of 4 (just four) teenagers gives them a unique and important perspective. As trained Cyber Security and IT Professionals, they understand first-hand the ins and outs of technology, as well as the underbelly of the dark web.
As parents of four digital teens, they know what actually works, what your super smart tech-savvy kids can easily bypass and can relate to the reality of being a parent in the always-on digital world. The Goods have spoken at Harvard, NASDAQ, and Coca-Cola, and have been invited on over 40 TV shows on ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX TV stations across the country about the importance of protecting your children online.
Chapters (with real life stories, research, helpful conversation starters, as well as tips and suggestions on what you can do from a technology perspective) include:
  • Times Have Changed
  • The Lingo of Today's Digital Kids - An Online and Social Media Primer for the Rest of Us
  • Pandora's Box - School Issued Devices
  • Smartphones - Are They Necessary and at What Age
  • Smartphone Apps - Doorway to Danger and Hidden Secrets
  • Sexting - The Real Consequences
  • Sharenting - Are YOU Endangering Your Children?
  • A Social Reputation - It Will NEVER Go Away
  • Won't You Be My Friend? Predators and Social Media
  • The Dark Side of Gaming - Addiction, Porn and Bullying
  • Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Cyber Bully?
  • The Dark Web - What It Is - What It's Not
  • Tech Giants - Do As I Say, Not As I Do
  • Trust but Verify Is the Key
Most children today know more than their parents do when it comes to technology, which convinces many parents to take the parental path of least resistance. They throw their hands up in the air and state as fact, "What's the use, they know more about technology than I do. They already have access, so it's too late. I can't do anything about what they do online. Hopefully, it will be okay." This is not true. It's not hopeless. There are options, and you need a plan.
Knowing what the options are, what would work best for your family, and developing a strategy is perhaps one of the most challenging aspects of parenting in today's digital world. Are Your Kids Naked Online provides guidance from technology experts on how to build a plan to protect your kids from online self-destruction.

Review

"... From sexting to engaging in or being the subject of online bullying, the Goods have heard it all. Add to that their interest in seeing to the welfare of their own children, and you can appreciate why they took it upon themselves to write Are Your Kids Naked Online? The stories that Chris and Lisa Good share in Are Your Kids Naked Online? are heartbreaking--sobering even. But the Goods' goal is not to frighten you as a parent. Rather, it is to arm you with information. It is not too early to prepare yourself and your children, even if they are only grade-schoolers, and it is not too late to educate yourself and to take action, even if your children are already in high school. The Goods provide statistics and risks, then set out practical and usable solutions for dealing with digital dangers. ...how online predators work; identifying the risks that online gaming introduces and more. If you have not already considered these issues for yourself and your children, today is the day for you to begin and picking up a copy of Are Your Kids Naked Online? would be a great place to start." -- Reviewed by Patricia Reding, attorney and multi-award-winning author of The Oathtaker Series - 5 stars
"... this intriguing book goes beyond the exploitative world of the 'send nudes' culture into darker and more concerning areas of the internet to which young people have free and easy access. Designed for parents and guardians who may not be particularly tech-savvy themselves, the book provides comprehensive chapters on important topics such as the Dark Web, Online Pornography, Cyber Bullying and addresses the immediate concerns as well as those of the future of young people. Co-authors Chris Good and Lisa Good have a wealth of experience in technology and cybersecurity, which gives a professional and authentic edge to the work which has gone into this well organized and comprehensive guidebook. The formatting of the book is such that you can read it in any order depending on the issues which most pertain to your situation at the time, whilst also picking up safety and security tips regardless of how long your kids have been engaged in online activity. There is a very serious note to the narrative, though it is also very non-judgemental and takes into account the nature of teens to explore, follow trends of their friends, and also sometimes get into worlds of which they don't mean to be a part. Overall, Are Your Kids Naked Online? is an excellent and informative work." -- Reviewed by K.C. Finn, Award Winning Author of Legion Lost and the SYNSK series- 5 stars
"... This eye-opening guide, written by IT experts who are parents of four teenagers, is essential and terrifying reading that leaves no doubt about the substantial dangers to kids in the screen-obsessed technology and social media world in which they live. The risks are serious, and the author's recommended fixes are nuanced and layered, combining engaged and aggressive parental communication with fearless implementation of technological tools that block, protect, observe, record, and attempt to insulate. Our kids are coming of age in a world that didn't exist for most of us, and these authors remind parents that we can't afford to let our ignorance or discomfort with the digital world slow us from protecting our children. A must read." -- Reviewed by award-winning, Amazon bestselling author Jordana Landsman - 4 stars out of 5
"... The chapters deal with a variety of very interesting topics, e.g. the advantages and dangers of school-issued devices, but also how to solve problems that come with these devices. Each chapter discusses a specific topic and offers parents a specific list of actions they can undertake. There is easy to understand information about the dark web, about sexting (and how surprisingly common it seems to be among children and teens!) and about the horrendous consequences kids' online actions can have. But fortunately, the authors have a lot of helpful advice for concerned parents. ... After reading this book in just a couple of sittings, I would warmly recommend it to all parents who are not quite comfortable with the internet themselves or are not sure how kids and teens are actually using it. This book will help parents to find the right way to have good talks about the internet with their kids. The authors' tone is friendly and understanding so even someone who has no clue won't feel like he/she is being patronized." --Reviewed by Kim Anisi for Readers' Favorite - 5 stars
"... Are Your Kids Naked Online? is a very relevant book in today's times when parents invariably know less about the Internet than their children do. As a result, children are susceptible to being exploited, harassed, abused, developing bad habits or addictions, and affecting their entire careers and lives simply because they or their parents did not know what to look for and how to use the Internet appropriately. The downside of gaming is an example of this where a harmless and fun activity can also become addictive and destructive if taken too far or in the wrong direction. Chris and Lisa Good write in an engaging and empathetic tone and include tips on what you can do as a parent for almost every topic. They highlight the issues with sexting, sharing inappropriate content online, pornography, etc. and offer suggestions for preventive remedies. This is a must-read book for every parent." -- Reviewed by Gisela Dixon for Readers' Favorite - 5 stars

5.0 out of 5 stars REVEALS THE DARK SIDE OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND HOW TO KEEP YOUR KIDS SAFE IN THE NEW DIGITAL WORLD

ARE YOUR KIDS NAKED ONLINE? How to protect your tech-savvy kids from online self-destruction! by Chris Good & Lisa Good is a 200 page non-fiction book about how parents can protect their children from the dangers of the internet and the new technologies that are being developed faster than most people can keep up with them. The authors, Chris Good and Lisa Good, are the parents of four teenage children. They also own their own IT (computer) consulting business. They have been in this business for over twenty years. They advise businesses and clients on computers, specializing in security matters.

ARE YOUR KIDS NAKED ONLINE? How to protect your tech- savvy kids from online self-destruction! by Chris Good & Lisa Good is divided into 14 easy to read chapters plus a preface and end notes and bibliography. The book is intended to provide parents with the “basic knowledge of today’s digital landscape in which children live.” Each chapter also contains “suggestions, tips, and tools” to help parents protect their children.

Unless you are an IT professional yourself, even if you do not have children, you can learn a lot from this book about the new online world and especially about what the “tech giants” don’t want you to know. Most of the information in ARE YOUR KIDS NAKED ONLINE? How to protect your tech- savvy kids from online self-destruction! by Chris Good & Lisa Good is not being published by the mainstream media. This book also tells you exactly why it isn’t being published by the mainstream media.
I would highly recommend this book if you have kids or, even if you don’t have kids, and just would like to learn more about the perils of the new technologies that are being developed, but that the people aren’t being informed of the dark side of those technologies. I rate this book 5 stars out of 5 stars.

I did a book review of this book for the Online Book Club. I received a Kindle copy of this book, plus if it is published, I will be paid $5.00 (in Amazon gift card money) for the review. Check the Online Book Club website if you want to read the longer more detailed book review I wrote for them. If they accept the review it will be published in a week or so.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read for parents wanting to keep their kids safe online!

This book is a must read for all parents and anyone who works with children. Chris Good and Lisa Good, the authors, have 20 years of experience in cyber security and information technology (IT). They share their wealth of information to help parents keep their children safe online. It’ s easy to read, easy to understand, and very relevant in today’s world (publication date of 2019).

Topics include Smartphones, sexting, sharenting (parents sharing children’s photos online), online predators, social media, cyberbullying, the Dark Web, and other relevant topics. Did you know “One in ten kids under age ten have seen pornography online.” Or that “Forty-four percent of kids ages eight to sixteen years old have hidden their online activity from their parents …” The sources for these statistics are included.

At the end of many of the chapters is a section called “What You Can Do”. This is where the authors offer tips, suggestions, and guidance to parents. It gives some great hands-on activities for parents to use as they navigate through the online world.

In our ever-changing world, it is important for children to know how to use online programs in a safe way. This book was extremely helpful. I was glad to read that I was doing most of what they suggested, but I did get many good tips that I didn’t know about.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for non-technical parents of teens and pre-teens concerned about technology
Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2020

While I am no expert in security technology nor in the various levels of the World Wide Web - I have worked in data communications from the dark old days of dial up access to high speed home access.

On the plus side the authors have hit on every point that a concerned parent should consider before allowing their children unfettered access to the internet by any technology platform. In almost every chapter they hammer home the basic rule of parenting - you are the parent, you make the rules - but you better teach your children well and develop a relationship with them that enables you to have frank and honest discussions.

Two points that detracted from the books message for me is the authors claim to be experts - but I couldn't find where they backed up that claim, and their recommendation to get business level expertise in monitoring and security options but not where. I would have liked to see some ball park costs and places to get that assistance.

If a parent isn't technologically versed this book should cause them to find the help they'll need before their child gets into a fix.

It is a written in lucid language and extensively covers the issues related to carelessness of kids and parents while using technology. It is also well-referenced. But, it seems to be quite one-sided, ignoring the many advantages of technology.

Great book, useful not only for parents, but for everyone. You can really tell by reading the book that all the advice and the recommendations the authors provide has only one goal - to protect the children, the most vulnerable members of the society.

The authors, both IT security experts, give examples of situations in which their clients reached out to them, asking for advice after their children had found themselves in an uncomfortable situation following their own, or someone else’s actions online. They shed light on how common these issues are, and how no one should think their children are protected without actively making sure they are.

I warmly recommend.

As a member of the Mellennial generation, I thought this book was going to be hokey, fear-mongering nonsense. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was not. Instead, you have a book which will assist any parent as they navigate this new era of smart phones and all the problems they can cause. What fear this book instills is completely justified and one must take heed of everything it says! A very good read!

Awful book. It sensationalises the subject, making it seem like children are not safe on the internet ever, and suggests that you make your children follow terrible authoritarian rules when online. Terrible lies, terrible advice, don't bother reading it!
