Breakdown: What to Expect for each class
Both classes are designed for parents of minors. Part one is geared towards ages 10-16. Part two is geared to any parent with a child who is pursuing the industry and understands it is highly recommended your child have a social media page.
That doesn’t mean you have to have a child in that age range to attend. Parents of younger children are welcome to join and prepare for what’s ahead, and professionals who work with youth are encouraged to attend, learn, and take these conversations back to the families or groups they serve.
Everyone is welcome.
To keep the sessions personal and leave plenty of room for conversation and questions, space is limited to 15 families per class.
Part One: Growing Up Online
For Parents + Kids Ages 10–16
Social media is part of growing up now, and kids need more than rules — they need confidence, judgment, boundaries and parents they feel safe talking to.
In Part One, we’ll talk about social media, friendships, online relationships, privacy, secrecy, confidence, comparison, personal safety and age-appropriate parental involvement.
This is not about monitoring every move your child makes. It’s also not about giving minors unlimited privacy.
We’ll focus on soft but firm boundaries — helping parents stay connected and involved while giving kids appropriate room to grow, make decisions and build trust.
We’ll also talk about how parents can ask better questions, recognize when something needs their attention and create an environment where their child feels comfortable saying, “I need to tell you something.”
Topics Include:
-
Social media friendships and relationships
-
Confidence, comparison and validation
-
Healthy privacy vs. concerning secrecy
-
Age-appropriate parental oversight
-
Soft but firm boundaries
-
Personal information and online safety
-
Recognizing when something feels wrong

Part Two: Industry Ready
For Young Talent (all ages) + Their Parents
When a young person begins pursuing acting, modeling, music, dance, fashion or entertainment, social media becomes more than a place to socialize — it can become part of their professional presence.
Part Two focuses on helping young talent and their parents build and manage a social media presence that is safe, age-appropriate, professional and still genuinely them.
We’ll talk about cleaning up existing accounts, deciding what should stay personal or become professional, what industry professionals may see, what young performers should post, what they should avoid and how parents can appropriately help manage their child’s online presence.
This is not about turning a kid into a brand or chasing followers.
It’s about helping young talent understand that their online reputation matters — while still allowing them to be young people first.
Topics Include:
-
Social media cleanup
-
Personal vs. professional accounts
-
Usernames, bios, photos and links
-
What to post and what not to post
-
Building an industry-appropriate presence
-
Parent-managed social media
-
DMs and professional communication
-
Tagging and interacting with industry professionals
-
Auditions, callbacks and what should remain private
-
Reputation and digital first impressions
-
Industry etiquette
-
Keeping personality without oversharing
-
Creating a simple social media plan
