I feel like for a 11yo, you can't even explain the risks. Not just for lack of true comprehension, but also just kids shouldn't have to worry about that stuff, and just be kids.
- sanswork 7mo agoMy son has had the local police do a presentation to his class/preschool/daycares about online safety every year since he was 4 so it's pretty drilled in by this point.
- Aeolun 7mo agoWut? If they’re using the internet they should be aware of that stuff. That’s what ‘just be kids’ means these days. Just being a kid isn’t a static state of being.
- kulahan 7mo agoIt's no longer safe for children to be unsupervised on the internet.
- Aeolun 7mo agoIt’s perfectly safe for them to be unsupervised on the internet for stretches of time.
- dyauspitr 7mo agoSo then they shouldn’t use the internet. I’m not going to fill my kids mind with all the dangers in the world when all they should be thinking about when they’re 8 is academics, friends and personal pursuits and achievements.
