How could I talk with my children about the difference between positive and negative online relationships and ways to manage these effectively?

• Media Smarts Digital Citizenship Guide can help parents to talk with their children about healthy  or unhealthy relationships, managing conflict and being a positive influence when online.
• The eSafety Commissioner’s website has information and advice on how to chat about unwanted contact (any type of online communication your children might find uncomfortable or confronting) or grooming.
• It can be helpful to understand how the changes your children will experience as they move into adolescence will affect relationships with the people around them. The Raising Children Network has information about Social and emotional changes: 9-15 years and understanding your child’s developing brain.
