Social Media Tips

Here are four tips to help keep your kids safe online:

1. Set strict privacy settings: If your child’s social media account is public, anyone can see their photos and personal information. Make sure that you restrict access to their profile only to their friends and follows.
    
2. Don’t share personal information with strangers online: Social media should be a place where you safely interact with friends and family! Encourage your kids to only accept friends/follows from people who they know. Remind kids that chat functions for popular online games like “Fortnite” are only for game play and not for disclosing personal information. If a stranger becomes an online friend, they could slowly build trust and potentially start grooming your child for trafficking.
    
3. Think before posting: Impress upon your kids that everything they post, regardless of privacy settings that you have set, is in the public domain. They should not post their phone number because that gives people a direct line to contact them. They should think twice about whether tagging a location in a photo because that gives people information about where they are located at that moment.
    
4. Know the warning signs of trafficking: Recognizing the warning signs of sex trafficking will help you protect your kid and others. Use OAG’s free resource to learn how to spot victims of trafficking and how to get them help.
