Are you a parent or carer of a young person growing up in a world where social media, AI-generated content, and constant connectivity shape their daily lives?
As part of Sexual Health Week 2025, the Luton Sexual Health Outreach Team invite you to an informative online session exploring how being chronically online can affect young people’s understanding of relationships, identity, and well-being.
This interactive session will help you better understand the digital landscape and give you practical tools to support your child in making safer, healthier choices online.
What We’ll Cover
- AI-Generated Content: How artificial intelligence is shaping what young people see online — from deepfakes to manipulated images — and what parents need to know.
- The Impact of Being “Chronically Online”: Understanding how constant screen time and exposure to online culture influence young people’s self-esteem, decision-making, and mental health.
- Healthy Relationships in a Digital World: How young people navigate friendships, dating, and sexual relationships online — and how to have supportive, open conversations with them.
- Practical Tips & Resources: Tools, strategies, and conversation starters to help you guide your child through the challenges of growing up online.
Who Should Attend
This event is perfect for:
- Parents and carers of young people
- Guardians and foster carers
- Extended family wishing to expand their knowledge
- We will be hosting a session for professionals on Wednesday 17th September
