11. Did you know...
You have to be 13 years old or above to have an account on many social networking sites including Facebook or Instagram
Why? This is because of a USA based child protection law which assumes 13 as an age for having better awareness of online risks

12. So we should be aware of the risks!
Did you know...
Research suggests that more than a third of UK 9-12 year olds now have their own Facebook account
So we should be aware of the risks!

15. Things can go wrong when you post images online or share with friends:
Images spread quickly
You never know who will see it

Think carefully before posting!

Take down the picture or video
Ask others to delete it
Report it to the website
Get help if you’re being bullied
Report if you’re being threatened

Photos and videos are a great way of sharing what you’re up to with your friends but, remember, anything you post online could be there forever.
We all do silly things sometimes but if we capture them on camera they can affect the way people think about us in the future. If you’re not sure they paint a positive picture of you (or your friends!) then think twice before posting.

Taking and sharing naked or ‘sexy’ pictures or videos of people under 18 is illegal, even if you’re taking them of yourself. The law is there to protect you from adults who make these pictures but sharing them of yourself can be really unsafe.
You also shouldn’t share naked or ‘sexy’ pictures of other young people - this is illegal and can cause them very serious problems.
