LOS ANGELES—The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is drawing attention to a recent report about parental filters.
The Family Online Safety Institute (FOSI) partnered with Ipsos to survey 1,000 children aged 10 to 17, along with 1,000 parents of children in the same age range.
The result, “Connected and Protected: Insights from FOSI’s 2025 Online Safety Survey,” provides insights into the roles of parents and publishers in protecting children online.
ASACP executive director Tim Henning points to this new research as revealing the foundational element in online child protection—parental controls and involvement.
“FOSI’s ongoing research reveals what many of us already know—effective online child protection begins at home, with effective parenting and supervision,” Henning said. “There are no prohibitionist legislative efforts or technical measures that can replace the involvement of caring parents and guardians when it comes to protecting children as they live their digital lives.”
