Keeping Safe & Smart
Please join attorney Lara Baker who will present information and answer questions about legal issues that can impact children as they navigate their adolescent years. From sexting to parties, Ms. Baker will provide information about the juvenile justice system and how to steer clear of it.
Hot topics:
• Are there any laws about minors and vaping?
• What are the ins and outs of sexting laws?
• What’s an MIP (Minor in Possession) and what implications could it have?
• What happens if your child gets caught with an illegal drug? How does it impact their future?
• How is cyber-bullying on social media defined and what are the legal implications?
• Are photos, videos or messages ever really deleted? Can they be accessed by law enforcement for an investigation?
• What happens to a minor who gives a peer something without their knowledge? (drugs or alcohol)
• What’s the law around adults/parents either providing or condoning substances at their home? What’s the liability?
• Is it okay for the school principal to question children if a parent is not present?
Although Lara's talk is targeted toward adults, your teenage children may also benefit from attending. Please sign up all attendees when registering. Thank you!
