Here are some questions you could discuss with your children. 13 years and older!
Do you really know everybody on your ‘friends’ list?
Do you know how to use and set privacy and security settings? Can you show me how?
Do you ever get messages from strangers? If so, how do you handle them?
Do you know anyone who has made plans to meet someone offline that they’ve only ever spoken to online?
Are people in your group of friends ever mean to each other, or to other people, online or on phones? If so, what do they say? Has anyone ever been mean to you? Would you tell me about it if they were?
Has anyone at your school, or anyone else you know, taken naked or sexy photos and sent them to other people, or received photos like that?
