For parents

We've provided some tips and strategies straight from the Beacon app for issues that families are commonly facing when navigating the online world.

Sexting

Definitions of sexting vary but there is a general consensus that it involves ‘sexually explicit content communicated via text messages, smartphones, or visual and activities such as social networking sites’.

Screen time

The question of whether or not parents should monitor their children’s social media often triggers a lot of follow up questions.

Techno tantrums

Parents and carers are often asking how to help manage screen time and especially avoiding 'techno tantrums' when asking children to stop using devices.

We’ve compiled some useful messages, digital assets and sample posts to help you promote Beacon.
