Giveaway! $50 Visa Gift Card & Admission to AT&T Mobile Safety School

giveaways

18 Oct

ATT mobile safety 
With two teens, our family has already experienced many of the safety issues that come with the convenience of mobile phones.   It’s likely your family has, too, or will soon.  The safety issues kids with mobile phones face include over-usage, texting while driving, bullying, and privacy, among others.  AT&T has made a commitment to help families better manage mobile safety by being a leader in providing education, resources and tools .

AT&T is offering the opportunity to one Freely Educate reader to attend a virtual Mobile Safety School session next week –  I’ll be there, too! – along with a $50 VISA gift card.

The virtual Mobile Safety School is held online for one hour and the schedule is as follows:

Oct. 23 at 1p ET – mobile safety for kids 8-11
Oct. 24 at 1p ET – mobile safety for kids 12-14
Oct. 25 at 1p ET – mobile safety for kids 15-17

To enter this giveaway, we want you to share a tip or concern you have on the subject of mobile safety in the comments section below.  After you have shared your tip, fill out the giveaway form below with the entry options you prefer (any information given – such as your Facebook log in or email address – will not be shared or used unless you are the winner).

I will choose a winner by midnight EST, Saturday, Oct. 20.

    I also worry about pictures, and sending them. I also worry about other people taking mobile phone pictures and sending them. I’ve caught a few people taking pictures of my daughter once or twice, and it really makes me uncomfortable.

    I’m concerned about driving on the road with other drivers that are messing with their phones.They swerve all over like they’re driving drunk.I’ve also had people step right in front of my car and they never notice they did it! They don’t look up at all! In general, people are too attached to the immediacy of communication today, like everything needs to be answered NOW! My 10 yo and I discuss this on a regular basis.

    I, too, worry about other drivers swerving all over the road because they are messing with their cell phones. We’ve seen two near misses with someone on a two-way hwy crossing the line.

    I am most concerned with drivers texting while driving or holding a cellphone to their ear and driving one handed. Use an earpiece or car speaker phone. Wait until you get to your destination or pull over to text.

    definitely worried about texting while driving the most! Today I saw a city bus driver not realize his light was green because he was looking at his phone!

    I’m most concerned about bullying via cell phone because my teen daughter is very quiet and would keep it to herself and I’d never know.

    I’m concerned with the amount of distractions we allow, preventing us from driving responsibly. Driving while texting, your eyes and your mind are not focused on driving.
