What To Know About Your Children’s Lives Online

Being bullied and trolled online. Violent or sexually explicit content. Reels and posts promoting unrealistic ideals. Our children could be inadvertently exposed to all this and more, in their everyday use of social media, gaming, video, messaging and content platforms. How concerned should we be about the content that our children and teens see online, and how do we realistically protect them from the potential harms? Dr Rajini Sarvananthan, Consultant Developmental Paediatrician, and Mediha Mahmood, CEO of the Communications and Multimedia Content Forum of Malaysia, join us for this conversation.
