There are annoyances and risks with potentially serious impact that must be addressed
polled parents on what they do to help their teens stay safe online on all platforms — not just TikTok. It was conducted by YouGov, an international research data and analytics company, which interviewed 2,000 US parents of 13 to 17 year-olds..I was pleased to see that 82% of parents think it’s important to spend time using the same platforms as their children to better understand or facilitate conversations.
Body image is a major concern among both parents and teens with 68% of moms and 50% of dads saying they are very confident talking to their teens about the issue. Most of the conversations are directed to their daughters versus 28% to sons. I’m not surprised, but I’d like to see this change.
The report found that 87% of US parents say they’ve used tech tools to monitor their children’s online usage and their kids generally agree with that perception. But parents want help, with saying that technology companies and governments should be more involved in protecting children online. The FOSI survey also examined various ways to determine age. Age assurance has been elusive but there are promising new technologies including biometric verifications that appear to be reasonably accurate. Both parents and teens agree that they would likely use such methods in the future.
