Safe parents worried about new security device
I believe the answer is:
snapfastener
'security device' is the definition.
'snap fastener' can be an answer for 'device' (snap fastener is a kind of device). I'm unsure of the 'security' bit.
'safe parents worried about new' is the wordplay.
'worried' indicates anagramming the letters.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'safe'+'parents'='safeparents'
'safeparents' is an anagram of 'snapfasteer'.
'snapfasteer' going around 'n' is 'SNAP-FASTENER'.
