Protect Young Eyes: Creating Safer Digital Spaces

Join the Movement - Sign the Delay Manifesto 📑

Welcome to Protect Young Eyes!

Hi! I’m Chris

This isn’t what I’m supposed to be doing! I thought for sure I’d be a partner at Ernst & Young by now.

But that wasn’t my path. So, I started PYE in 2015 to show amazing families like yours how to take it slow and use the right tech at the right time.

Because something about giving kids iPhones made me unsettled. They get one, precious childhood.

For whatever reason, I have been given an insane amount of energy directed at this work. For such a time as this! My misery was transformed, let’s transform the digital culture of your family, together.
