Risks of social media
Social media sites can also pose risks. For your child, these risks include:
being exposed to inappropriate or upsetting content like mean, aggressive, violent or sexual comments or images
uploading inappropriate content like embarrassing or provocative photos or videos of themselves or others
sharing personal information with strangers – for example, phone numbers, date of birth or location
cyberbullying
exposure to too much targeted advertising and marketing
data breaches, like having personal data sold on to other organisations.
Navigating the risks of social media
Talking about social media use is the best way to protect your child and ensure your child’s internet safety. Talking gives you the opportunity to help your child:
work out how they want to behave and be treated by other people online
understand the risks involved in using social media – for example, risks like being tagged in an embarrassing photo taken at a party
understand the dangers involved in sharing content and personal information – this includes not only content that your child shares but also images of your child that other people share, or posts and images that others tag your child to
learn how to navigate the risks – for example, if your child posts an identifiable image of themselves, they can reduce risk by not including any other personal information
learn what to do if people ask for personal details, are mean or abusive online, post embarrassing photos of your child, or share information that links back to your child
manage their own digital footprint – for example, you could talk about what your child would like their digital footprint to say about them, now and in the future.
