Your child will grow up with AI. Shutting it out is not possible, and letting it in with no rules is worse. This free course gives you a simple, warm, practical framework you can use tonight.

Three questions, an age-band ladder, household rules your child helps write, and clear guardrails for safety and privacy. It draws on UNESCO's guidance, Common Sense Media's research, and the same school frameworks your child's teachers are using, translated for the dinner table.

Find the right posture for your child

Choose an age band. The dial shows how much independence fits, and the note tells you what to do.
