The internet offers children and young people many opportunities to learn, play and connect with others. However, it also presents risks such as cyberbullying, online grooming, inappropriate content, scams and exploitation.
Parents, carers and professionals can help children stay safe by encouraging open conversations about online activities, setting appropriate privacy controls and helping them recognise when something doesn't feel right.
