DERBY, DERBYSHIRE, UNITED KINGDOM, April 7, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — To mark Autism Awareness Month, ParentShield, the UK’s only mobile network for children and those with learning delay has provided a series of helpful posts to explain to new parents of children with autism how communication is learned and progresses, so they will be in a good place to help their children with the big transition to using a mobile phone.

Talking on the phone is something that many children find uncomfortable, and in many cases this is something that carries on into adulthood.

ParentShield is the only mobile network that provides a unique set of monitoring, alert and control features that enable a mobile phone to be safe and appropriate for users of any age and level of ability. In the most restrictive mode, a phone can be restricted to calls to and from the parents’ own phones only, and additional capability added as confidence and skills increase. The Network’s SIMS are increasingly specified by Care Providers as well as therapists and parents’ groups.

The help guides have been written by ParentShield CEO Graham Tyers, himself father of a son with autism and communication difficulties and former Governor of the Holbrook Centre for Autism – a flagship centre of excellence for teaching of children on the Autistic Spectrum.

The guides cover the basics of the differences that appear in Autistic Communication and can be found on the company’s website

About ParentShield

ParentShield is the UK’s only Mobile Network designed specifically with children in mind, incorporating a wide range of tools – from call recording to keyword alerts – that allow parents to oversee their child’s phone usage without invading their privacy. It can work with any unlocked feature-phone, smartphone or smartwatch and does not require any app or parental controls to be set on the device. Its features are handled remotely, allowing for optimal convenience while kids retain their independence. The SIMs work across the UK and beyond.

ParentShield is seen as one of the UK’s ‘rising-star’ MVNO’s with an offering and speciality that is significantly different from past MVNO start-ups that have struggled to compete on price alone with the discount MVNO operators in the UK.

Being a SIM-based network-side service, parents can provide ANY unlocked phone to their child and give them a totally normal mobile phone experience without the stigma of being a locked or crippled “parental control” phone that you wouldn’t want to show your friends in the playground.
