Key findings:
• Children’s exposure to online risks tends to be less when parents actively mediate their children’s use.
• Active mediation is linked to MORE (not fewer) online activities and skills
Activity 1:
View Videos from Child Exploitation and Online Protection
(CEOP) or ThinkUKnow YouTube Channels together with your
child and discuss the following questions after viewing each
video:
1)Why do you think the incident happen?
2)What would you do if you are the character in the video?
3)What do you think the parent of the character should
do/could have done? Why?

Research: Active Mediation Strategy
Activity 2:
Use the self-assessment checklist with your child to engage him/her in an open discussion on his/her digital lifestyle so that you can better support him/her home cyber wellness education
