Osprey.
That is a grassroots initiative where we want to foster our kids
having social lives without social media.
And I think the way you do that is by community.
So finding other families with children your same age
who have the same value system, who want their kids
to be engaged in the real world, learning how to do things that they enjoy.
I feel like we only have a chance
at success if our kids are not alone.
When I was growing up, both my parents went back to college
and we had a home computer before anybody did.
With access to the internet and just having
that was dangerous enough.
Then it was like, well, you know, I had access to this,
so I'm going to let my kid have access to this, but it's different
because it's in your pocket.
The isolation and the trouble have. Yes.
And the digital becoming.
This is my whole world.
And I have a world inside here where I'm communicating with people over
there as a nest remodeling that for our kids,
like we have a genuine relationship where we are communicating
about what's right and wrong and how we feel.
And, you know, so that shows our kids that that's how you create relationships
to be able to bring, see, spar and to work with the connect, Protect plan.
And it's just, I don't know, feels really good.
Connect and protect is very cool to me because there are controls.
So you can limit and restrict different kinds of content.
But what I'm thinking of is we're limiting bullying.
We are restricting the loss of childhood innocence.
It's not limiting and restricting the good things that you that the kids want.
It's limiting and need.
It's restricting the bad things
that they don't want to experience and we don't want them to experience.
It's not about cutting something off.
It's about creating the boundary, right?
The cool thing about the protect side of this is
that you give them a phone and it has, you know, you can call mom,
dad, grandparents, mom, one one and that's it.
And then you add text to it.
You can text these people on word.
Then you can add music to it and they can they can download music
and they can listen to music.
And they're so they're becoming more and more active, more
and more responsible and earning that trust and getting more thing.
It's not necessarily like keeping your thumb on them
and their decisions for the rest of your life.
It's just setting the tone early to say, here's what's real, here's what's not.
And I, I barely yeah, this is so timely.
It's a good time.
It's a good time for Connect
and Protect to be beginning and to have all this options.
And I'm just I'm grateful that the conversation is happening.
If you have a group of people with the same mission, same passion,
you can really change everything.
If you want to go fast, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together. Yeah.
As a group, we're all very good at analogies.
Yeah.
