What does privacy really mean to kids growing up in a world of oversharing? From personal data to online footprints, children are constantly giving away information—sometimes without realizing the consequences. But privacy isn’t just about protecting data—it’s also about teaching kids the importance of personal boundaries, consent, and digital self-awareness. In this episode, we discuss how to help children understand what should and shouldn’t be shared, why privacy settings aren’t enough, and how to instill habits that will protect them for years to come. Because in an era where everything is public, helping kids reclaim their right to privacy is more important than ever.
