15. Do you use social networking sites

16. Have you made friends with people online that you did not know?

17. Have you ever met someone in real life that you only knew online?

18. Digital parenting
"Treat the online world in much the same way as you'd treat the offline world. You wouldn't let your child leave the house unless you knew where they were going, for example. You should apply the same thinking online. So ask your child:
where they go online
who they chat to
who gets in touch with them
what they do online.
Don't make it a 'special' conversation. Just ask as often as you would if you were talking about the offline world."

19. Parental controls
Controls are not a single solution to staying safe online; talking to your children and encouraging responsible behaviour is critical. However, controls are a vital first step to helping to protect your child online, and here seven simple things you can do to use them effectively:
Set up home broadband parental controls and make use of controls on your home broadband.
Set controls on your search engine; encourage your child to always use child-friendly search engines, and  activate and lock the safe search settings on the browsers and platforms they use.
Make sure every device is protected. Controls should be installed on every device your child uses, such as their mobile phone, tablet and games consoles

20. Parental controls
Activate the safety measures offered by different sites; social networking sites like Facebook have privacy settings that will help prevent your child seeing unsuitable advertising or sharing too much with other people.
Block pop-ups.
Find good sites and agree on them as a family. By talking to your child about their interests you can help them find suitable sites to visit and apps to use. Review these sites as they get older.
Manage their use and access. Children may be very worried that your response to a problem will be to take away their internet access.  Whilst this may be an appropriate response in some cases, the threat may be a barrier for a child who needs help. 

21. What advice can you give to children :
Do not let peer pressure or what other people are doing on these sites convince you to do something you are not comfortable with. 
Be wary of publishing any identifying information about yourself – either in your profile or in your posts – such as phone numbers, pictures of your home, workplace or school, your address or birthday.
Pick a user name that does not include any personal information. For example, “joeglasgow” or “janeliverpool” would be bad choices.
Use strong passwords.
Keep your profile closed and allow only your friends to view your profile.

22. Cont’d
What goes online stays online. Do not say anything or publish pictures that might later cause you or someone else embarrassment. 
Be aware of what friends post about you, or reply to your posts, particularly about your personal details and activities. 
Don't post your holiday dates - or family photos while you are away - as social networking sites are a favourite research tool for the modern burglar.
Be on your guard against phishing scams, including fake friend requests and posts from individuals or companies inviting you to visit other pages or sites.
If you do get caught up in a scam, make sure you remove any corresponding likes and app permissions from your account.
Ensure you have effective and updated antivirus/antispyware software and firewall running before you go online. 

23. Tell children before they send a photo to think about:
What could happen to it?
Once they press send, it is no longer in their control. It can be posted anywhere on the internet. It could end up on social networking sites or even porn sites.
Who might see it?
Not to send anything they wouldn’t want your parents, teachers or friends seeing. Even if they completely trust someone, other people using their phone might accidently see it.

24. Cont’d What are the risks?
Even if they use a webcam or an app like Snapchat, the person can take a screen shot in seconds.
Why would they want to send it?
If they want to impress somebody, they can do it in other ways. In most cases, sexting can have the opposite effect and they could be seen as somebody they are not. (CHILDLINE)

25. How you can help to safeguard children from this abuse
Discuss regularly with children about the risks and where to go for help.
Signpost parents and educate them of the risks and how to minimise these e.g. – links from your school website or twitter feeds.
If a child discloses any information which suggests they have an inappropriate relationship with another person online make sure it is reported immediately through your safeguarding lead.
