The Protect Young Eyes Community
Your Family’s Tech Support Hub
Discover Your Digital Parenting Superpowers. With Others!
In the Table, you’ll be with others who have chosen the slow-tech life! Enjoy personal tech-support, learn from experts and like-minded parents, access trusted resources, and take our self-guided certification courses to be prepared to help others!
We believe education + community = your success.
TAKING THE JOURNEY TOGETHER
We know you want to prepare and protect your kids online. But it can feel overwhelming, alone. The Table is the antidote. Along with others, we can fight against tech’s biggest lie. That our children will somehow be left behind without the latest gadget. Very little about social media and devices is actually better for our kids.
Andrea and I are stumbling and bumbling through the digital age with you. I bet you agree that #delayistheway! We’ve chosen the slow-tech life. Will you join us?
The Protect Young Eyes Membership
The Table is a place to be supported and strengthened. For some, a lifeline when a digital emergency occurs. For others, the “Now what?” after attending a live talk or going through our courses.
I appreciate the practical tips and reminders for my own parenting journey. I feel a strong sense of support and not being alone in protecting and loving my preteen. Protect Young Eyes keeps giving me good wording and thoughts to normalize my role as a protective parent — yet not a fearful one. As a result, I am leaning on the PYE Community (The Table) to help me be an informed and well-equipped parent who is allowing fun and useful technology use, but at a safe, go-slower, trust-based, and properly monitored pace.
THE DETAILS
Inside The Table, you have access to:
Exclusive Content
Here’s where we’ll share things we don’t normally share on social media. Brutally honest stories from the front lines with principals, other parents, and tech companies. Personal stories as Andrea and I raise four children in the digital age, including a child with a disability, and more. Friday Tech Tips lead you into the weekend with super practical ideas.
Monthly Chat with Abby & Chris sessions share the most important digital trends impacting families.
Everyone in the membership is a brave co-laborer. We’re in this together and I’m going to spill my heart and share everything we’re dealing with. Without the limitations imposed on us by social media companies who don’t always agree with our position. No ads. No algorithms. No asterisks. It’s a digital space we control.
Personalized Tech Support
I LOVE our community! Ask any tech question, anytime in an uplifting and respectful space filled with like-minded parents. Abby and Chris are there to provide almost instant help. Ask general questions, share your digital parenting successes and struggles, and build each other up. Connect with wonderful human beings from around the world!
Mini Certifications
There is an army of moms and dads out there who want to dig deep and help others. Imagine running a small group in your community with PYE content. But they aren’t sure how to get started. Consider this passionate quote from PYE follower Kris:
“Over the last year, I have become very passionate about internet safety for children. I have been down the rabbit hole, watched the Childhood 2.0 movie, and have personally seen the effects of social media on both of my teenage nieces. This is personal to me. I also have a 6 and a 3-year-old boy, so there is a lot at stake for me. I have decided that I want and NEED to make a difference in this space…How can I be part of this movement? I am very tech-savvy and can help parents set up phone restrictions or just educate them on the subject.”
We have multiple mini certifications to choose from: Pornography Education, Rein in YouTube, and Hooked on Gaming. At your own pace, watch videos, read articles, practice ideas, pass a quiz, and you can be PYE Certified!

“ I'm off the charts excited to be your Community Care Lead for The Table! For 6 years, I’ve followed PYE for info on how to parent in this digital age. They’ve been a vital part of why we do tech the way we do in our family. If you and I have ever had a conversation about technology, then you’ve heard about PYE, because I’ve been a huge fan since the beginning! “

Thanks to Chris and Abby, I have gained a lot of knowledge about how tech works (I now know what a router is!) and am able to make a plan that will protect my children and, hopefully, increase our peace and happiness at home! I love being able to ask any questions specific to my situation and to receive personalized help.
I really enjoyed the focus on how to talk about pornography with younger children. The videos and articles that focused on this actually helped me have a really fruitful and casual conversation with my 7-year-old daughter after completing the [Porn Education] certification course. The way Chris talked about the topic and how to approach it with younger children gave me so much peace!
