Mastering Parental Controls: A Guide to Safeguarding Your Child’s Social Media Experience

admin
SHARE

In today’s digital world, keeping your child safe online is more important than ever. The Dubai Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) highlights the need for parents to monitor their children’s social media use. Most of the platforms require users to be at least 13 years old. Unfortunately, many children lie about their age to gain access.

The KHDA has put together a detailed guide on how to set up parental controls across various social media platforms. Here’s a quick summary of what you can do:

  1. Facebook & Instagram: Use the ‘Family Center’ to manage settings. Check activity, and receive alerts about potential risks.
  2. TikTok: Activate ‘Family Pairing’ to limit screen time. Control who can interact with your child. Filter the content they can see.
  3. Snapchat: Turn on ‘Ghost Mode’ to keep your child’s location private. Review their friends list to ensure they know everyone.
  4. YouTube: Enable ‘Restricted Mode’ to block potentially inappropriate content. Regularly check the channels your child subscribes to.

Additionally, it’s essential to talk to your children about online safety. Always encourage them to share their experiences and any worries they may have. Regularly checking in on their online activities. It can help to create a safer and more open digital environment.
