A new presentation for parents and caregivers, available now
This is Jameson.
Like a lot of kids, Jameson spends his free time online. He plays games on his PlayStation, texts on his phone, and chats on his Chromebook.
All of those apps and services are a potential vector for cyberbullying, online predators, and other harms.
Susie’s Place provides free presentations for parents and caregivers to help you protect kids from online predators and threats like these…
The online players
Games with built-in player chat expose millions of kids and teens to millions of other people, often at random.
How old are these people?
Where are they from?
What are they talking about between rounds?
Who are these people, really?
The newest apps
Apps come and go quickly. Loopsy, Yubo, Omegle, Whisper, Discord, Wink, Blippr, Kik, and Friender.
One of those apps has shut down, three are made up, and the rest are real.
Can you tell the difference?
The known bullies
While not necessarily “predators”, kids from school and around town can track people down in Instagram, TikTok, games, and more.
Kids who bully, or are being bullied, can carry that right into the digital space.
