| Resumo: | In this article, we analyze parental mediation in relation to mobile technologies and the internet during the Covid-19 pandemic. We carried out a descriptive-analytical study based on qualitative research, through semi-structured interviews with eighteen children and one member of their families. The results point to the intensified use of mobile technologies (cell phones, notebooks, and tablets), and the internet during the Covid-19 pandemic, a fact that represented a challenge for parental mediation. Families have adopted different strategies to mediate children's digital media experiences, ranging from more restrictive or more active actions, based on guidance and dialog, to accompanying or being present during children's activities on the internet. For this reason, it is essential for families to be aware of how to guide their children in online activities and for schools to promote children's media education. |
