25.01.2022 Does this sound familiar? The minute they jump in your car they ask for your phone?...

24.01.2022 Experts point to an increasing dependency on activities associated with the brain's excitement-pleasure circuitry for the rising levels of anxiety and depression in teenagers today. Prominent in this cerebral circuitry is social media. Find out here what best we can do...

21.01.2022 Your teens know this already, so here's a link for you to learn how to get the settings right as once you've started using Snap Map you cannot disable it any more. To be safe it's best to set your child's setting to "Ghost Mode" (no one can see where you are) or "select friends" (only hand picked friends will be able to see your location). Check it out.

21.01.2022 Online child grooming is a very real concern. Kik - just like any app, online game, or social media platform that allows the user to be in contact with people they do not know, can put them at risk.

16.01.2022 Do your children think they are not pretty enough in a selfie? And how many selfies do they take until they are happy with he one they are going to post?

16.01.2022 Surely not what you want, exposing your children to porn environment! Make sure you use filters and restrictions on all of your devices...

13.01.2022 We are so aware of the stranger in the street, we'd never let our kids out at night. We talk to them about stranger danger, who to talk to, who to trust, where to go when they get scared... and then we let them disappear into their bedrooms - with a device.

12.01.2022 Some studies will deliver evidence that the use of social media does contribute to poor mental health. Others say that social media is not as harming as it might look like. But what they all agree on is that the strength and the importance of family is always going to be one of the most important things to mental health.

11.01.2022 They are out there, just a few suburbs away! Have the important chat with your kids not to befriend nor talk to a stranger online, no matter how special they might make them feel in their grooming process. 1 degree separation with online connections!

09.01.2022 Total disconnection is not a solution and will deprive our kids from learning 21st century skills and from the chance to become good digital citizens - education is the way to go.

09.01.2022 Oh yes, there are myths in internet safety, too... here's the buster if you feel like it'd be good to look at the same topics maybe a little differently.

08.01.2022 What a wonderful article on the eSafety Commissioner's blog. Don't forget, the password is the key to your house, so keep it safe. A true friend wouldn't want you to share your password anyway. Stay safe!

08.01.2022 We all know what it feels like to read or hear stories about children being approached by a stranger online. Something we are all afraid of - is this going to happen to my child, how will my daughter or son react? Best to know the facts and start the conversation with them.

07.01.2022 Hi guys, happy Friday! Here's your read for the weekend... something to think about. Enjoy the weekend xx

06.01.2022 Happy weekend!!! :) Here's a little read for you when you have time between soccer and netball on Saturday, everything in a nutshell you need to know about Instagram - almost worth printing...

05.01.2022 Switch them on! Instagram has introduced two new tools -- a filter to block certain offensive comments and a spam filter in nine languages.

04.01.2022 Just think about this number for a second... One in ten visitors to pornographic websites are 10 years or younger. Time for a careful chat and some filters to minimise the risk.

03.01.2022 Say for some reason we didn't use privacy settings in an app that our kids are using. What will also protect them is when we give them the right tools how to react in certain situations. Talk to them about what best to do should they get contacted by a stranger or when being asked to do things that make them feel uncomfortable. Asking to keep something as a secret is a big alarm bell. Encourage your kids to tell you or another trusted adult whenever something online doesn't feel "right" because only then we can help.

03.01.2022 iParent: Many parents worry about their children coming across pornography online and the effects this can have. Here are six strategies for when your child accidentally finds online pornography. http://bit.ly/2rgQETw

02.01.2022 A new app from the Middle East is in town. You don't even have to register to use it and you can comment totally anonymously- a playground for cyber bullies. Stay away from it.

01.01.2022 This is truly hard to read and take in but will give you so much insight into a grooming process. Hoping this little family is alright.
