‘Oscar’s Adventure in the Online World’
With the increasing technological development and dependency, it’s not odd for your children to play on phones, iPads, or some other electronic device anymore. At times, it might be tempting to let your kids enjoy the thrills of the internet for hours on end, playing games or harmlessly goofing off. While this isn’t bad, it’s important to know the dangers of being online. Children might be unaware of the menaces that lurk online. Inappropriate content, scams, “friendly” chat rooms, and online bullying are a few things that may threaten your child’s safety. One way to avoid this would be to educate them to recognize anything suspicious. Make sure they feel comfortable coming to you to talk about it. Inspired Be
