What do we need to know?

How kids feel about social media Source: Common Sense Media: Social Media, Social Life - How Teens View Their Digital Lives

We prefer face time to screen time Talking in person is our favourite way to communicate because it’s more fun and easier to understand what other people mean. If we can’t do that we text. Our favourite way to communicate is: In person (49%) By text (33%) On social networks (%7) By phone (4%) On Twitter (%1%) Source: Common Sense Media: Social Media, Social Life - How Teens View Their Digital Lives

We prefer face time to screen time Many of us believe that using social media: Takes away from time we can spend with others face to face (34%) Distracts us from the people we’re with (44%) Creates frustration when our friends pay more attention to their gadgets than to us (45%) Source: Common Sense Media: Social Media, Social Life - How Teens View Their Digital Lives

91% of teens with smart phones use social networking sites What did you find surprising/interesting ? Why do you think kids ‘hide’ their online activities from parents? Why do some kids ignore their parents’ advice about being safe & responsible online ? Will you do anything differently?

Enhancing parents’knowledge and practice of online safety Young people: make good use of the online security controls and privacy settings that are available, are particularly savvy about how to stay safe when using social networking sites, are influenced by their parents when it comes to being smart, safe, respectful and resilient online, draw upon school based education programs, peer networks, sibling relationships and conversations with adults for online safety strategies.

Enhancing parents’knowledge and practice of online safety Rather than sliding into a moral vacuum when they go online, young people draw upon the same moral framework that shapes their offline engagements. This underlines the importance of parents continuing to have open and ongoing conversations with young people about their online activities that reiterate their family’s values.

What bothers Australian kids online? Source: AU Kids Online project - Children comment on bullies, porn and violence - Feb 2013

What bothers Australian kids online? The largest concern for Australian children is other people’s behaviour online. 30% referring to it as their only or first mentioned concern. Code responses that cover this category include: bullying, unwelcome conduct in general, other mean or aggressive conduct. people saying bad things about you.

What bothers Australian kids online? The youngest groups are more concerned about content and other risks. As children get older they become more concerned about behaviour and contact risks. Concerns about inappropriate behaviour is most common among the 9-10 year olds. Concerns about bullying increases with age and peaks at years. Concerns about unwanted sharing of personal information, images or photos increase with age, becoming most common among the oldest group.

What do we need to do?

Common Sense media agreement

Digital parenting: A checklist Embrace their world. Teach them to respect their devices and have ‘screen free’ time. Use parental controls on computers & devices. Help manage their digital footprints and reputation. Talk about The Golden Rule…if you wouldn’t say something to someone’s face then don’t text it, Skype it, Facebook it, IM it or post it. Agree on downloads…which music, games, sites? Establish guidelines for managing time online and where they will use their devices. Reassure them that if anything happens that makes them feel scared, mean or suspicious and they tell you, you will not ‘pull the plug’. Source: Common Sense Media

Gaming Why do kids love playing video games? Which ones do your kids like to play? What are some of the positive - and negative effects video s could have on your child? Can video games be educational? If so, how? What can kids learn? How do you set and manage time limits for gaming in your home? How do you try to ensure that you kids play games that are age - appropriate? How can parents steer kids towards games that are fun and positive learning experiences? What challenges or concerns have you experienced with your own child around gaming? How have you handled the situation? What worked? What didn’t? What else do you need to know to help you manage gaming in your family?

What will you do? What will you do to engage with your kid’s digital life? What questions do you have? What comments would you like to share? How will you keep current with what your kid is doing with devices and social media?
