children and social media

Along with the increasing internet access, not least in children and adolescents. Social media is one of the most widely used applications, which should be under parental supervision.

Research conducted revealed, the increasing time of adolescents to access social media, especially from cell phones, ie up to 10 times per day. increase the risk of cyberbullying, also increase the risk of depression caused by the lack of smooth interaction between friends in social media. Social media also opens the possibility of harassment in the form of mockery or nicknames that can be embarrassing for children or adolescents, with not a light psychological effect.

Some of the following guidelines can provide a way for parents to keep children safe in accessing social media: 1. Apply appropriate age rules to use social media

Note the security settings feature and use a special surveillance program
Give a good example

parents have a tremendous role in educating children at home. At school, children are the responsibility of their teachers. But out of school, wherever the children are, it is the responsibility of the parents that the role of the family in the education of the child should be strengthened from the moment. Because it ensures they are safe from any disturbance or potential disturbance, it is also the responsibility of the parents. It is a task but if parents want their children to grow into a strong, independent and cautious person, parents must invest early on. @smartsteem
